Pain In Rib Cage Due To Fluid Collection After Hernia Surgery. Reason For Bleeding Vaginally After Period?
40 year old female with 14 year old gastric bypass. I had a hernia repair surgery August 27, 2013 with 2 previous surgeries for hernia repair days apart for the same. I was septic in 2010 now just released this week from my surgeon after CT scan with contrast. I have been in increased pain around my left side rib cage where fluid collected after the surgery. I have been bleeding vaginally in the last 2 hours. I last had a period 8 days ago. Female issue or what?
HI Thank for asking to HCM Mam you have multiple pathologies some of them being operated, when there is multiple health issues then the bad consequences of disease and medicine and surgery are more likely, now your main concern is bleeding per vagina, if you are still having your period then it could be the first reason and if you are not then other possible cause has to be look and I would advise you to wait for some time if this will go away it self, wait and watch is the best strategy in this case, unless it is heavy or profuse bleeding have nice day.
