So long as it is a clearish fluid draining and not huge amounts and you feel ok with no temperature then it's probably ok.I had to return twice a week to have a seroma drained and that went on for 5 weeks.Just keep an eye on it and record how much is on the dressing and whether it's light blood stained fluid. Obviously bright blood or pus or a high temp is not good-go to dr's in that case. Hope this helps.
