Ugh, I just got home from my surgeon's office a couple of hours ago. I had my surgery Monday, 3/19 and ended up with an infection in an incision. It was warm to the touch, very swollen, almost hard, reddish pink, and oozing bloody plasma. This just started last night so I made sure I got to the surgeon today. I was hoping for an antibiotic and to be sent on my way, but the dr numbed it and cut it open with a scalpel to drain and pressed around to make sure everything was out. Then he packed it with gauze and I have to go back tomorrow to get it checked. So don't wait!!! Good luck to you, I am hoping that now I can start to heal, I've been in pain since the surgery.
