I had 300cc placed under the muscle through inframammary incisions. I noticed my steristrips have accumulated more blood over the last couple days. Day 2 after surgery there was a small amount of redness visible on steristrips. It is now day 4 post op and there is even more blood visible. Is this normal or something I should be worried about?
