Following surgery, you may have bleeding through the dressing that I put on at the time of surgery. Often this is about the size of a quarter or maybe even just slightly larger. Please don’t remove the dressing, but reinforce it. This would involve putting another dressing on top of the current dressing. However, if it continues to bleed and you’re concerned about the amount of bleeding, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
