Post Op Drain

[mpt809 30]

Has anyone had problems with their JP Drain? I'm 6 days post op and I've noticed my drain has been leaking the past couple of days.

Mine has leaked a lot too. I did get it caught trying to get up, and it pulled a bit, so I blame that. Any tugs to yours?

@@mpt809, can you still see if the stitch holding it in is intact? My nurse said as long as it is, you should be fine. I've had no new leaking today.

Yes, it still is intact, but it is also still leaking. I spoke to the nurse practitioner at my physicians office today and she says it should be okay until it is removed this Thursday.
