Had Laprascopic Hernia Operation. Why Did I Get Blisters Afterwards?

I had laprascopic hernia operation 4 days ago. I m feeling a little better - walking around more and less pain . I took my bandages off this morning and saw that 3 dime size blisters have developed around the incision areas. They are leaking a yellow like liquid. Again no pain, but is this normal? Is my body rejecting the mesh used in he surgery?
