Hello ma'am and welcome.
Light bleeding and discharge after such a surgery is normal for a few days and it slowly subsides. Although there are chances of an infection which is why antibiotics need to be started on the day of the surgery and continued for while even after.
If the bleeding and/or discharge last for more than 14 days, report this to your doctor.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
