Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
He has cancer surgery. Cancer patient has high tendency of bleeding. Cancer itself can leads to low platelet count. More over drugs used in cancer treatment also causing tendency to bleed. So it can be due to that or some other cause. He should check her complete blood count and coagulation profile. Then take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
