Hello Im 21 Days Post Op Tummy Tuck Inside Belly Button is Bleeding, Is this Normal?

Thank you for your question. This is not common and there may be a stitch issue, either one retained or one spitting.  Be evaluated by the one who sewed you up, and they will know what is in there. I hope this helps.

This should not usually be a problem as the bleeding is only slight with no infection. This can happen with any dressings and any skin sutures, so there should be no reason to worry, but if you continue to worry about the bleeding on your abdominal area around your belly button then do not hesitate to contact your PS to find out of anything is delaying healing. Best of luck!

The navel is completely redone at the time of an abdominoplasty and can emit some drainage for several weeks. Significant amounts of fluid are probably collections of blood or serum draining through the umbilical stump.
