Bleeding post Hip Replacement Surgery

2024-05-12 18:11:23
Hi, My dad underwent hip replacement surgery revision 1 month ago. Doctor advised him to take blood thinners until he starts walking normally, The issue is his surgery wound is not getting healed properly. It starts bleeding every time. Doctors tried washing the wound and re-suture, unfortunately it didn't work either. Currently taking Linezolid and clindamycin antibiotics along with blood thinners. Please I'm looking for a second opinion.

Bleeding is because of blood thinner. If any discharge from wound, go for culture and sensitivity of discharge
