They tried placing it back but there was excessive leakage and air was getting in. I'm worried that this will affect me for the worse. My doctor velasco has been amazing and even made a special trip to the clinic for me when the drain was falling out. The nurses are all at my reach 24 hours a day and I don't feel neglected.

Some surgeons use what I think you mean as quilting sutures or progressive tension sutures to help minimize the need for drains. Depending upon what type of suture is used, it may take several months for them to dissolve.
