Asked By:Anonymous746 in Ottawa, ON

I had a pimple looking bump on my right incision I pressed on it and puss began to come out. Colour as shown in pictures. Then eventually smaller amount came out and clearer. Increased redness around this incision. No pain, however i am still numb in that area. I travelled for my surgery so I have no direct access to surgeon should i be concerned and go see a doctor?
