Not sure if this is where I should ask this but, I was doing some house work today nothing major and noticed my pants were sliding down a tad and went to pull them up and I noticed I felt like something a little wet. Well it's like hardly nothing but still....it was one of my bigger incisions (from the bypass I had 4 and half weeks ago) that had a teeny tiny of blood and I'm guessing pus coming out. At first I was freaking but it's really not alot but I thought I was all closed up for good lol I know I should probably call my dr but I really hate calling them:( has anyone else had an issue like this?

Call your doctor... that's what they're there for, that's why they get paid the big bucks!

If there is indeed pus coming from your incision, you need to get to a doctor ASAP! Pus means infection and infections can kill you. I would think after 4.5 weeks your incisions should be closed, if not completely healed on the outside. Good luck!
