My husband is recovering from a abominable surgery which required a jp drain . The drain has been removed D however the insertion site , after forming some granulated tissue in the insertion point is leaking a profuse greenish fluid. There is no odour and no fever. Is this infection?

Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that thereis chance of biliary tract formation. This fluid is most probably a bile solution. Kindly check it with operating surgeon and if tract is there, it should be operated upon soon.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
