I had a Tummy Tuck and body lipo on last February 12. I had a drainage for only 9 days. After the seventh day, my belly started to swell up and my belly button started discharging a light yellow liquid, there is no odor. Around the hole of my belly button, the skin is turning white from the water discharge. When will it stop? What should I do ?
I had A tummy tuck November 8th, and last night I noticed that my belly button was draining a clear discharge. It had a smell to it. I have had discharge from my belly button before which looked clear and bloody, but that was at 2-3 weeks post op. I noticed I have a long stitch sticking out in the inside of my belly button that has been there since day one.. Its just not long enough to be cut. My belly button does not look infected or hurt. Its just that discharge coming out from the inside.
I am 5 weeks post op fleur de lis tummy tuck, and the T section and small area horizontally and small are vertically, are still discharging, but very minimally. I am treating them with antibacterial ointment prescribed by my PS. Just wondering if letting them air out a bit would assist in forming scab sooner. I lost 183 lbs with gastric bypass, and they removed 13 lbs of skin. I realize the T section is usually the section that takes the longest to scab up. Very happy with the results so far.
I had a tummy tuck 8 weeks ago. Ive had discharge coming out of my belly button for a few weeks. I advised the surgeon. I went to my visit today and he stated that he needed to cauterize the wound maybe more than once. Is this normal???
I had a tummy tuck about 9 months ago and there is a problem with my navel. I keep getting green clear discharge so the doctor gave me antibiotics but it never cleared. As i have had this procedure done abroad i need to find a doctor local in London otherwise have to fly back out. My surgeon reckons it could be a stitch inside which needs a navel revision. He reckons i may have a granuloma from the stitch. Doctor also took swab and came back clear so no infection. What can this be ?
I got a tummy tuck 32 days ago the drain was removed on day 13th. The scabbed closed but then a stich was coming out the doctor removed the scab. He called it detriment and then told me I didnt have an infection and that I could shower and just cover it with gauze and clean only with water and mild soap. Its been 3 days since he removed scab and did debriment... Im so scared how is this looking? Only stains a tiny bit.
