Drain wounds won’t heal

Posted by usaf @usaf, Jun 29, 2024

I had my drain tubes removed 6 weeks ago.
I still have bile coming out from the wounds, so they are not healing. Anyone else have this problem!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

Yes, my tubes came out 7 months ago. Had stents put in bile duct 3 times. Going to see gastrointestinal surgeon again on Monday.

How did the appointment go, @usaf? Did you get referred to a wound nurse?

Hi,
No I have not been referred to a wound specialist. They did a bunch of billiary bloodwork and going in for a cat scan and colonoscopy to see if there is any internal damage.
