Re: Incision Oozing ... question

[Guest guest]

Hey Becky. I had oozing about the same time at the bottom of my incision.

It is normal. I kept it covered and it healed in about a week. It was a

light pinkish/orange in color as well.

Becky, all is normal. Mine oozed for two months after, which Dee told me it

could do. So don't worry.

Becky,

That is serosanguinous fluid and it is normal. Your incision might

pull apart a little bit there, but I wouldn't worry about it. This

happens sometimes.

It's normal to have some drainage. Unless it's really green, or clearly puss, or

bloody, be calm.

Becky, I, too, had a wee bit of oozing and was told to not worry. Then one day

standing at the sink a fountain erupted from my incision. I spouted about a

gallon of liquid that sprayed my kitchen from one end to the other. I thought I

was a gonner -- scared the harry heck out of me. When I called the office, our

Dee said, " Did a lung come out? " When I said, " no, " she replied, " then what are

you worried about? " Such compassion! LOL

I used " preemie " diapers as they were the most absorbent and the easiest

dressings to deal with. Dr. K told me that the diapers were a brilliant idea.

Keep the faith, Becky and enjoy the ride -- with all the oddities that come with

it.

She is serious. Mine came out looking like pure white slugs. Scared me. Also

I had five holes opened up down my incision. When I would go in and doc

would put his Q-tips in my all in a row, now that looked weird. I drained, as I

said, for two months. And I had several of the white fat slugs that came out.

Maybe you will have them, and maybe not. We are all different.They are

harmless
