I had open fistula surgery two days ago but there's still pus and blood draining from the area nonstop is this normal or could there be a problem
It's understandable to be concerned about persistent drainage after fistula surgery. While some drainage, including pus and blood, is normal in the days following surgery, continuous, heavy, and nonstop drainage could indicate a potential problem, says a doctor. It's best to consult your surgeon for evaluation and guidance
