How likely is hematoma to come back after being treated?

August 18, 2014
Asked By:Gnaz8 in Mount Prospect, IL

I developed a hematoma 9 days after surgery, for no obvious reason at that. I'm very concerned that it will come back. I had the drainage and vessel closed up early Friday morning and an at work today which is Monday. While I'm trying to take it easy, my job requires me to sit and stand and move rom to room. Looking for any reassurance.
