I had a RALP three days ago. They took out some lymph nodes as well. The JP Drain was removed the next day. The incision continued to ooze a bit until sometime early this morning -- I changed my bandage at 3:00 am and it was clean when I got up later, and still no fluid appearing 15 hours later.
However, the area around the drain site is getting rather large and feels a bit wobbly, like a quarter-full catheter bag. My abdomen is visibly lopsided, but not grossly. There is no discomfort.
Is this thing going to pop? Or will the fluids be absorbed by my body?
