Water/Watery blood comes out of my stitches after three weeks from breast augmentation. Is this normal?

Asked By:sherycn in New London, CT

It is not pus, does not smell bad. My breasts are the same size, no hardness, normal color. However, this watery blood just wont stop flowing since 5 days ago. I talked to my surgeon, she put reinforcement stitches in the area where it initially started but now it started from another area. She said it was normal from water/blook that did not come out with the drainage and it needed a way out but I am worried since three weeks have already passed
