Bleeding at 4 weeks post op should be examined by your surgeon. If it is small areas where perhaps a small scab has come loose then there is typically no cause for concern. As it's better to err on the side of caution, I recommend speaking to your surgeon about this situation.
You may want to have your PCP run some blood work to make sure that all of your micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) are in normal range. Make sure that you have adequate hydration. You may incorporate gentle stretching exercises that can help with this as well.
It is best to have your surgeon examine the area to determine the best course of action. It is unlikely the surgery will be canceled unless there is infection present or the rash/swelling is excessive. Your surgeon will advise you.
