Ok, heres the weird thing. I had no bruising near my incisions untill I went out with some friends, did entirely too much walking and laughed my head off. I went home with this..

This was taken about 6 days after my surgery.. There were no bruises, now suddently a monsterous one. Is this normal? or did I break myself.

I had bruising a couple days after my surgery went away within a couple of weeks..

Ok.

Thanks for the reply. I was sort of worried I had ruined something.

bruises usualy look worse before they look better turning colors like that i was told meant they were healing, bruising is fairly common during surgery, imagine all the work going on in your stomach i had the bruising too

Hey Kendra, it looks liek you had the bruse for a while, given the yellow color. It is possible that the bruse just took a while to surface. When my bruse finally surfaced it had started to change color already

Thats true. It really could have just been it took that long. THanks for all the replies!

Word to the wise, stay away from friends that make you laugh too hard after surgery. lol

The yellow is from the camra (i took the piccy), her skin is peach around the cuts theres some goobery stuff the doc put over her scars (like a dried Glue thats making the image Bright yellow in those spots, its the glue shining back on the camra) Cause physically on her skin she is a normal coloring.

I didn't bruise, but my mom had some big brusies and we had the same surgeon. He must have had to smack her a couple of times, LOL.

Yes I had the same Doctor as well and yet I recieved no bruises, the only odd thing I find about the bruising is that its showen up on her 5 days Post-Op They didnt show up at all until then.

Lmao!! Maybe thats what they had to do with me. Or maybe it was the "

Im fine see!" :smack smack: thing right after anesthesia.

Okay, I had my surgery last Friday, so 5 days post-op, and some incisions are more bruised than others, but they are ALL the yellowy brown, I have none of the bright reddish purpley kind you have on the one...is that your port incision? Better be careful, quit being so darn chipper and laughing so much!!! LOL I'll bet it heals up quick, just keep an eye on it.

The big red one? I think thats my port O.o Im not sure. It didnt get red like that untill I laughed the whole day. There was probably some bleeding through under the skin.

Im glad to hear yours look good! =) Hope you heal well as well.
