What Causes Yellow Discharge And Bleeding After An Anal Fistula Surgery?
Hi, I have had surgery for an anal fistula, its been two days and I see a small amount of blood and a dark yellow color. I m not sure what it should look like while healing and am slightly worried there is an infection as it is a yellowish color. It does not hurt tho. Are there any precations I should take and is it as it should be att this stage?
