My partner had a hernia operation a week and a half ago. and he developed a hematoma after surgery. still after a week the wound has not healed and it is still bleeding he has about a 1cm gap where the blood is still coming out.he has alot of swelling and is still in alot of pain. we have been to the hospital on 3 occasions and been told its ok and normal. he is due to go back tomorrow and have the staples removed, but the wound has not healed, is that right? and is there anything they should be doing.
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He may have gaping of wound due to some poor healing as a result of some factors. Poor nutrition, diabetes, infection, constant irritation, raise intro abdominal pressure are some of the factors which causes delay in wound healing. He should go for examination. Need to search for any of these factors and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor.
