I had foot surgery on May 26th. I had a bone spur removed from the top of my foot. Last week I started "leaking" a clear fluid from the incision. It pours out. I called my doc and he don't know what it is from or what it is. Any ideas? wink.gif

Dear Nellie
It is not unusual to have drainage exiting a wound postoperatively. Quality and quantity should be examined. Make sure that your doctor exams the surgical site and wound in order to determine if there is cause for alarm.

Good-luck and thank-you for contacting foot.com,
