The whitish stuff is just glue

Looks good, healing very well. I had bruising around my incisions and it took them a few days before they appeared and it took a couple weeks for them to disappear.

Is it bruising? Bruising can be yellowish in color.

Still, my observation does not and should not take the place of your doctor or any medical professional.

It looks fine. My bruising looks purple, yellow, green and black! Lol!

looks like bruising to me - and since you have the glued incisions, sometimes the iodine they clean you with during surgery is stuck under it as well. As long as it's not red or draining pus, you're good. :)

Looks like normal healing to me! Abnormal would be red, warm/hot to the touch, discharge, pus or a foul odor.

Just from the picture you posted I think the incision looks good. Granted, I am not an expert but to me it definitely doesn't look like something that would warrant an immediate visit to the ER! If you are worried, it never hurts to pop into your surgeon or PCP office and have someone take a look. Recently I was sick - it made me feel so much better to go in and have my dr tell me I wasn't going to die (ok, I was nowhere near dying - I had strep throat). Sometimes we just need a little reassurance -

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
