Hello dear , hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .
* The ICD site leakage may be there for some period around 2 - 3
weeks once the tuberculosis gets under control with anti
tuberculous treatment , wound heals from inside and leakage stops
Hope this will clear your query .
Wishing you fine recovery .
Regards dear take care .
