I had mine for a week.  Was *so* uncomfortable with it.  Felt a million times better the second they took it out!

I dont understand why some people have drains and others don't.   I didnt have one.

Mine looked like a little hand grenade. It came out after 2 days, the morning I left the hospital. Didn't bother me at all. I hardly knew it was there. Very little leakage after it was removed.
