Blood clots coming out of Tummy Tuck incision. What can I expect to happen now? What's best way to treat this? (photos)
EfroMay 8, 2014
After 30 days of having my drain tube in,it came out today. At the same time we noticed a 2 inch section of incision (kind of a bloody blister). My PS drained it and told me it would probably drain more. Tonight when I was changing the bandage, I was pressing down and blood clots and blood came out for a good 10 mins. Now , it feels like it's hollow under the incision. What's happening and how do I help encourage healing? Should I keep tight compression? Should I not be active? Do I rest more?
