I had a Tummy Tuck and body lipo on last February 12. I had a drainage for only 9 days. After the seventh day, my belly started to swell up and my belly button started discharging a light yellow liquid, there is no odor. Around the hole of my belly button, the skin is turning white from the water discharge. When will it stop? What should I do ?
Tummy tuck post OP 5 weeks I have a seroma found by a ct scan and now have a open wound this morning a small wound opened and started draining it looks like puss my bigger wound hurts is draining a lot I change it 3-4times a day with a thick pad I'm so frustrated my surgeon says it not infected but it sticks I been packing the big one with gauze a big pad and tape
I had an FDL on 30th Oct. Naval wasnt receiving enough oxygen and became infected.Metronidazole 500mg x 3 and Co-Amoxiclav 500+125mg x 3 a day. Op to remove naval on 5th Nov. Since been flushing the drain hole with saline,Then packing with iodine soaked swab each day.Worried as when I remove the swab it has grey pus, the hole isnt getting smaller, been on antibiotics 3 weeks. Whats going to happen when I finish them? Will the hole close itself or more surgery? Grateful for any opinions!
Im 4 weeks post FTT. I went to see my doctor last week because I notice that a small part of my incision was open and red and had a bit of pus, and a stitch was coming out and it was hurting a lot. The Dr. said it was normal and not to put anything on it. and he will see me in a week. I have an appointmet this coming thursday but I wanted to get a 2nd opinion. I'm starting to get worried cause a week has passed and it is still the same. Something else my Dr says I don't have to wear a girdle.
I have a hole in my Incision is a little red and some yellow pus is coming out my scar is complete heal only this hole is taking longer . Today my doctor give me antibiotics again for 10 days. I should worry about this ??
They begin like a pimple, break open with fluid and puss on my incision line(after tummy tuck). Ive been opened up and had irritated tissue cleaned out twice after the tummy tuck(that included muscle repair and hernia repair). Each time irritated tissue begins to pour out of incision. This time we are trying steroid injections. It seems to be keeping them smaller but I am still in a great deal of pain and they are still evident. My doctor says its just abnormal healing.
It's been a year and a half. Ow I have this cyst that is draining puss and has a suture coming out... can someone tell me how often does happen? I posted in my previous question.... this doctor is saying I didn't heal correctly. I think this is BS! My stomach was never flat in the first darn place ever! From the very beginning I had to still suck my stomach in.
It started at PO day 17 with a little white stringy pus coming out and now two days later it is a white cream cheese looking substance in the incision under the scab. I called my doctor before they closed for their Christmas holiday and my doctors 3 week vacation and the nurse called in Keflex for me and told me to call after the Holidays if it doesn't get better. Should I worry about the white stuff and that it is just opening more? Should I be worried about the opening and the white stuff?
