Cauliflower, bumpy skin below incision

[jeweledcitrus 4]

I had gastric bypass 3 days ago, and just came home yesterday. My incisions have been looking fine--I did spring a leak in the hospital in one and again yesterday--same one. The nurse wasn't too concerned in the hospital, just put a gauze on it. I did the same yesterday and it was fine. Tonight when I looked at it, the area below my incision looked all bumpy and kind of like cauliflower ear that wrestlers get. Does anyone know anything about this? I should be sleeping, but I'm a bit freeked out.

You should contact your doctor.

I don't know what they used to close the skin incision on you but for me it was a type of lidocain glue.I had my RNY 7 days ago and on the 2nd and 3rd day one of the doctors kept asking if my if a particular incision hurt or was itchy at all and I said no. It was look pretty nasty, turns out they called my surgeon and he said I was having an allergic reaction and peeled it off all my incisions, the bariatric nurse then put a piece of tegaderm on each one and its been good since. @@jeweledcitrus definitely give your surgeon a call.
