I have yellow fluid pouring out of my incision 1 year post-op, is this a seroma?

bbl2018cakeJan 28, 2018
Hi, earlier on today fluid started pouring out of my incisions from where I had my bum implants.. I had my implants placed a year ago but they moved out the pocket so 2 weeks ago I had corrective surgery. The fluid is transparent yellow, straw like in colour and there is a lot of it coming out (little puddles) it’s been leaking now for a good 6 hours. I do not have a fever or feel unwell I also don’t have any pain. What’s going on seroma / infection?! I’m scared!

You most likely have a seroma on that side which is just a build up of excess fluid. This will need to be aspirated to avoid further complications. Seek consultation with a plastic surgeon in your area to address this ASAP.
