Asked By:robbinrobinson in Apple Valley, CA

Why should I still have drainage after almost 3 months after my surgery I also periodically get what feels to be a lot of pressure for a day that burns a sharp pains on the incision that goes away unpredictable when it happens or why I have had 2 ultrasounds 1 that showed a pocket of fluid my surgeon near the incision and relieved but now 2 weeks later still lots of drainage 2nd ultrasound showed no more pockets of fluid any advise would help with what’s going on.?
