Hello Dinesh,

Thank you for reaching out. We understand your concern regarding the discharge from your stitches after your ZSR procedure on 25th Jan 2025.

A small amount of clear or slightly yellowish fluid (serous discharge) can sometimes be normal during the healing process. However, if the fluid is excessive, has a foul odor, appears pus-like, or if you experience increased pain, redness, or fever, it may indicate an infection or delayed healing, and you should seek medical advice promptly.

Regarding medication, if there are no clear signs of infection, you may only need to keep the area clean and follow your post-operative care instructions. If an infection is suspected, your surgeon might prescribe antibiotics to address it. It's essential to get a proper evaluation to determine the appropriate treatment.

We will arrange a call from our care specialist to help you consult with your surgeon and guide you with the treatment.
