Are my JP Drains insertion sites infected? (photos)

May 29, 2014
Asked By:WantHourglass in Orlando, FL

Today I had my 2 JP drains removed by a home health care provider as I could not travel 3.5 hrs to my surgeon's office (he gave me permission to do this). I am 9 days post-op on my BBL. But I had noticed about 2-3 days ago redness & soreness at the insertion sites. I had dressings around the drains and changed them daily after showering. Now that they are out, it looks like they may be infected a bit. How should I treat them? Neosporin? Thoughts? Thanks in advance for replying.
