I have a drain coming out of  an abcess pocket on my ascending colon.  It has been there 5 days and is still draining some.Im also on antibiotics for another week and am supposed to have the drain for the week as well.  I noticed the tube seems to have loosened a little - maybe a half inch and a little fluid came out - due to the bag(bulb) hanging down.  The stitches that were put in are sticking out more.  Im sitting down and it is not dripping now.  Its Sat night  and Im wondering if I can wait til Monday to see the dr.
