Hi everyone!

I had BMX on February 8 with lymph node disection on left side. Dressings and compression vest are out, but I still have all the drains.

I have two drains on left and one on right. In the right drain as well as in one of the left drain I still collect dark red liquid, about 10-12 ml pe day.

Is this normal?

Also, I have considerable pain in my left arm, starting in the axillary area and propagating down the arm if I keep my arm down. Any idea if this will go away later?
