Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I don't see any reason for you to worry. Just a minimal bleeding or blood stained discharge is normal after few days of any surgery.
Usually, the healing ends of the vagina may produce such blood or discharge. Can be left alone. Only if the bleeding is heavy, you need to go to doctor early. Just relax and wait for the appointment date. No need to rush to emergency.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. R.Balakrishnan
