Clear/yellow fluid one month post-op?

jaclyn73
I'm exactly one month post op and I'm still experiencing clear fluid drainage from my incisions. I had this same drainage about two weeks ago on my left breast and it went away, then last week it started on my right breast but stopped after a few days and has now started again on the left. I don't have any pain, fever, or open wounds. I should also note that I had a bad reaction to the steri strips but the rash, redness, and itching has gone down tremendously since I removed them two days ago.
