    Default Day 5, Minor Bleeding

    Anyone have minor bleeding at the incision site? I did last night and it freaked me out. I have several friends who have had the procedure and none of them had this issue.

    Called my docs office and they connected me to his partner, said to just compress the area and that is all I need to do. It worked, but I'm still concerned because I have a type of hemophilia and I also read that bleeding can be from stomach incision line bleed oozing out.

    Anyone experience this first hand?

    My larger incision started bleeding the night I came home from the hospital. I ended up going back to the ER and they were useless. I was able to get into see my doctor and he ended up putting in a couple of stitches and I was good.

    Maybe get a belly binder holds everything tight and in place while you heal?
