Patient's question:
Due to my more than ten years of small intestinal hernia, it has become increasingly severe over time. Worried that my body couldn't take it any longer, I underwent surgery. However, on the first day after the surgery, there was a large amount of subcutaneous bruising. What could be the reason for this? What should I do if there are blood clots under the skin after a small intestinal hernia surgery?Doctor's answer:
The mental trauma from inguinal hernia surgery is not significant, and postoperative full recovery is relatively quick. Postoperative subcutaneous blood clots are rarely triggered by inguinal hernia surgery. After bed rest surgery, the reoccurrence of subcutaneous blood clots is most common and often requires the most consideration, typically indicating a coagulation dysfunction disorder. However, generally speaking, preoperative improvement in this area requires careful examination. It is recommended that you undergo another coagulation function test to determine if it is a coagulation dysfunction disorder. Based on the specific type of disorder, targeted treatment can then be administered.
