General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Depends on your statements, I just want to say that pus is a sign of infection particularly from a postoperative sutured site. I am not clear of your question. Wank to know whether the fluid is from surgical site or from some other blister.Hope You were prescribed with antibiotics after your surgery. I advised you to go with the surgeon who did the surgery for review. I believe, it is from wound only without involving any organs inside. Might be minor problem because the pus settled. Don't worry. Be healthy.
