Asked By:MH911

I went to see my surgeon on Saturday & I got a sonogram & extracted fluid from an area. Seemed to fix the problem that day. I started to leak a lot more from my incision. I really have no pain & have not ran a fever but I do have discomfort from the side of where he took the liquid out. Feels like it fills up & when I push on it a little that's when it really starts coming out of my incision. Not sure what else to do. I did contact my surgeon & currently waiting for a response from him.
