TT guestions, 10 days post-op

TT and big hernia repair 10 days ago. I've been told I do have a belly button now. (I had surgery at age 3 and since have never had a real hole there.) This morning there is drainage and yellow pus coming from the area I think the button is located. Is there a real chance I could lose my new belly button? (My mom lost hers during her TT, so I know there are some people without a button.) When were you able to stand up straight? Did your back hurt too 'cause you couldn't straighten? When could you fit into your pants? How long did you wear your binder? Told ya I had questions! Thanks for your time.
