What Causes Small Red Bumps On Back Post Hip Replacement Surgery?
Sensitive red small bumps on back after hip replacement. Now 1 or 2 are oozing clear/yellow fluid. On incision some oozing by the tape. Should this be concerning? The nurse saw this today minus the oozing of the back bumps but she saw everything else.
