    Iv had a similar problem, had my 6 week check last week and the nurse said it was fine, she said the scab was good as it’s protecting the area

    I feel exactly the same!
    I just had a bit of blood in my Macom. I’m almost 3 months post op and had two scabs! One either side. One fell off about 3 weeks ago and I haven’t had any problems.
    However, yesterday on the side where my last scab was became quite red and angry. I took my macom off earlier and found a bit of dry blood. The scab doesn’t feel as raised as it did so thinking some of it has come off and maybe got caught which is why there is blood!!
    I’m worried there’s infection too Hun 🙁 x

    totally normal, usually the scabs is where the dissolvable stitch still is and it hasn’t dropped off yet, I just picked mine off and pulled it out as im ok with them sort of things lol! but don’t worry, bits of dried blood still scabs etc normal xxx
