is it normal to still be spotting blood and yellow fluid 5 days after breast reduction?

Blood and fluid discharge from the incisions a few days after injury is not uncommon and is not something to panic about. What you should look out for are the common signs and symptoms of infection. Usually, fever, chills, redness, tenderness, increased temperature, and pain on the incision suggest an infection. It would be best to have your surgeon check the incision to make sure you are healing well. Always keep the incision clean and dry as much as possible to prevent bacteria growth.
