10 days post op, I have greenish vaginal discharge with no smell after Tummy Tuck. Is this normal?

Question

Hi, I'm 10 days post op and have a creamy greenish vaginal discharge with no smell. Should I call my surgeon, my GYN or is this discharge consider normal after the process?

Thomas Trevisani, MD · Answer

You need to contact your Surgeon immediately and also i recommend seeing your OB-GYN . You might have yeast infection caused by the use of antibiotics-- that destroyed " good bacteria" that help keep your body's natural yeast in check. If it is a yeast infection- then Diflucan might be prescribed.You might also have bacterial vaginosis -- so it's best to see your doctors and be examined to know for sure.

One should have nothing to do with the other. This is not the forum to be getting advise so eary on in your post-op. Contact your surgeon and see your GYN. Good luck

I would contact both your PS and your Gynaecologicist. It is important that any possible infection is treated so as not to affect the healing incisions.
