Brief Answer:
Healing process

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about discharge.

After surgery, sometimes there is a tissue reaction while healing. This is more so as a reaction to a small police of thread (suture) allergy that is caused during surgery.

This will generally heal itself if it is small. I don't see any reason to worry. Just squeeze it out and clean nicely.

This will heal by itself.
