I am still learning about the surgery and trying to decide. There are 2 doctors in the group I'm going to but one uses the drain and the other does not. The one that doesn't is the doctor I'm seeing. He has done almost 800 of these surgeries, so I guess he knows what he's doing. Thanks for your help. Do most doctors use these drains? I am still learning about the surgery and

I thought I would need to go back to the hospital because it was leaking alot everywhere. I bought some absorbant 4 by 4 gause pads and folded into half one to two and then put a full one over that and then paper tape (allergic to regular tape). I had about 4 days of changing bandages alot and then the seepage slowed down alot. I think that around the drain I must of had a fluid collection. That is my only suggestion. OK< I know this is really gross, but I had my JP drain removed yesterday. I am still really getting alot of drainage from this site. I have to change clothes several times a day because it seeps through my bandage. It is a lot of seepage. It is really gross. I hate it. Any ideas? I have seriously considered buying thick kotex and bandaging them to my site. I think I would rather still have the bulb, so that it has some place to collect. Please let me know your experience.
