Patient's question:
Uterine fibroid (abdominal anastomosis) postoperative small opening not healed well, about 1cm in diameter, no blood leakage but yellowish fluid is seeping out. Other areas have healed well. Is it necessary to have a second surgery for the small opening that hasn't healed well after uterine fibroid surgery?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you with your question. Based on the information you provided, the yellow liquid oozing from the wound after uterine fibroid surgery is likely a sign of wound infection. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital's surgical department for a follow-up examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, the condition should be treated accordingly. Generally, a second surgery is not necessary. Sterile dressing changes are required. Maintain a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and refrain from overworking. Pay attention to rest. The recurrence of uterine fibroids seriously affects women's health, and patients need to pay attention to postmenstrual follow-up examinations in daily life, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy foods.
