2 weeks post TT Dark brown blood drainage from incision, should I be worried? (photo)

Dear Texan,   Front picture of your abdomen would have been helpful. If you do not have chills or fever, than most likely you have fluid collection (seroma or old hematoma)  that found it's way to the surface.   You need to contact your surgeon as soon as possible, to enlarge the wound opening, so the fluid will be easily drained and you will not develop an abscess. Your surgeon might send a specimen of fluid to the lab for culture and sensitivity and prescribe you  prophylactic  antibiotics. You will also be instructed how to take care of the wound.                Best of luck,                                 Dr Widder

You did the correct thing by contacting your surgeon. Since the bleeding is new and increasing in amount it should be evaluated by your surgeon. Until you hear back keep the area clean and dry. Use bandages to collect the discharge.

Thanks for your question and I understand your concern. Any changes during recovery can be unsettling to say the least. The good news in this case is that the color indicates it is old blood, which is less of a concern. However, there could be additional fluid that needs to be drained to avoid additional complications. I recommend you contact your surgeon for an in-person examination so that treatment can be done if it is needed. If you experience other symptoms like redness, swelling, a foul odor or pain, contact your surgeon right away as these could be signs of an infection. I wish you all the best in your recovery from your tummy tuck!
