Glue still slowly coming off port incision. On left corner I see clear like loop (stitch I'm guessing) coming out of it. Is this normal? I'm now nervous I have a infection and will need it removed and placed back in. Has this happened to anyone? Should I go to ER. I feel fine otherwise although some discomfort here and there in area. Also, low grade fever, but may be due to chemo meds putting me in early menopause?
So glad it was nothing serious, peace of mind is priceless!! Hugs!
Saw the NP. Says all is good so I feel a little bad calling so early in the morning. What I thought was a clear stitch is glue built up on a scan smh. I can't help but be nervous about everything anymore. Thank you all for the responses! 🩷
Just don't rub the rest of glue off no matter what it looks like. It will come off by itself when its ready. My surgeon pulled a few stubborn pieces off post op but that was her doing, not mine. She could see the incision was healed.
Hope you had a good visit with the NP, everything ok? Hugs!
I am glad the NP is going to be able to take a look at it today. Mine was glued, it is possible it is a stitch that is meant to dissolve as your body heals. Mine never opened, so all I could see was the incision and the glue over it. As long as there are no signs of infection (keep an eye on that temp!, as well as increased redness, etc)
Please let us know how it goes today! Gentle hugs!
