26 days post op. I was cleaning my incision When It opened! Now with serosanguinous to bright red bloody. It has been increasing the last few days before it opened. I have been taking showers, using soap and water.

Answer: Wound dehiscence, what should I do? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. The first step would be to reach out to your surgeon's office so that they can recommend local wound care to ensure that you go on to heal without further issue. It will take several weeks, but your body will have to heal this from the inside-out, typically with the use of daily dressing changes. Your surgeon will be able to give you the best recommendation. Hope this helps.
