General Surgeon 's  Response
Now since the bleeding vein has been sutured by the doctor, and there is no more bleeding or hematoma, all should be fine in a week or ten days time. The slight swelling of the stitched vein is not of much concern. Please apply any antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Mupirocin twice a day over the operated area and please keep it clean. If your doctor has prescribed you a short course of antibiotics, it is good.
