So I am seven days out from a full tummy tuck and I still have my drain and I am emptying it 4 to 5 times a day so that totals about 500 mL a day of serosanguineous blood… Is that normal?

Answer: Drainage Have you spoken to your surgeon about the drainage amount? It seems to be on the high side at this point in recovery, but it truly depends on the details of your surgery. Your surgeon is the best person to advise you on this situation.

Answer: Drainage after tummy tuck Drainage of 500cc 1 week following a TT is quite high; the drains can often be removed by this time. You should follow up with your surgeon.
