Is it a peachy colored Fluid? My hubby had this with one is the incision. It kept opening and leaking like mad. The nurse said that it was healing from the inside out so the fluid had to leak out the incision. Just keep it clean and dry and change it accordingly. See your family doc or a walk in clinic if concerned. It took about 3 weeks for it to finally close.
