8 weeks post op, started bleeding again

At my post op check up last week my doc said there was still a small area that wasn't quite healed up yet. I've had trouble healing up completely, I think because I couldn't seem to keep still. When I came home from work today I went to the bathroom and discovered I was bleeding quite a bit. Kind of a shock, had only had minimal bleeding up until now. I didn't think I had done anything today that would cause bleeding..but then when I think about it I realize that I picked up a case of water bottles. Probably shouldn't have done that. I'm laying flat now and keeping an eye on the bleeding to see if it gets worse. If it does I'm calling the emergency doc. I have a feeling it will stop bleeding soon though. I wonder if there was a stitch or something that came out? Any thoughts?
Hope all of you are doing well. Take care!

Re: 8 weeks post op, started bleeding again

I would guess the case of water bottles would do it - I am still using the one hand rule "only pick it up if I can do it with one hand"

Let us know how you are doing!
