Is this normal?
Its been 1 month since my panni surgery, and i still have to wear bandages from where the drainage tubes came out (last tube came out 2 weeks ago). How long till this stops? Anybody a month out and still having the incision area still bleeding? I have an appointment with my surgeon next week, just wanted to know of this is normal.
I had very mild leaking for a couple days after I took my drains out. I taped a thin maxi pad over them and I think between that and the compression garment holding it tight, it closed up pretty quick. I think your experience is more normal though based on everything Ive read - the holes are pretty deep and take time to close up. You just want to watch for signs of infections.
