Just implanted, sign of infection or normal?

Hi guys,

I was implanted on the 7th, I just unwrapped my gauze to replace it and noticed that it is yellow, my penis seems to be discharging this yellow fluid.

I have messaged the nurse, just waiting for a response.

Can anyone confirm if this has happened to them ? Is this a sign of infection?

Thank you,
J

I wonder if its some of the antibiotic fluid they used? My non medical mind says that the color is too uniform to be infection fluid.
I suggest that you save that gauze in case your doctor wants to culture it.

Didn't you say that you had a sub-coronal implant?

If so, I'd expect some discharge from your incision and, if you have an infection, it should be obvious from any inflamation (pain/redness/swelling) in your penis but your doc/nurse would be in a better position to advise you.

Good luck!

I’m not a doctor. Always take their advice.

That being said that color didn’t look like evidence of infection. Greenish-yellow pus would alarm me. That shade of yellow makes me think more of a some type of topical skin disinfectant. Bigger question is are you running any temperature?

I agree with all above but best to check with your doctor. You have a pretty good one from what I have read. Are you on antibiotic meds from the surgery?

Thanks guys, sent pic to the nurse who checked with the doctor, he said it is all good.
