9 wks after TT and aspiration of persistent seroma for 3 weeks (of 9) I underwent surgery to remove pseudobursa with quilt sutures to close space and no drain reinserted. Doctor said the seroma was 1/4 " thick, confirmed surgery was right decision. I'm 2 days post op and can feel and see fluid build up again. I informed doctor and he said he could remove fluid when he sees me in 3 days. Is this a time sensitive issue? Why is this happening? What is protocol for my situation. Should I go to ER?
