Asked By:5662anon in illinois

I am 2 wks post full TT. What should my navel area look like at this point? I have constant sersanguinous drainage & can see yellowish tissue and indentations, or "holes" where the sutures were. I have no fever, no foul odor, can't tell if there's pain there because it's still pretty numb. MD says its fine and to cover it with a 4x4 to keep it clean. The other incision is fine.
