Hi. I had a hysterectomy 6 weeks ago. Total abdomnal everything removed. I have an awful oder down there and an ugly discharge. It's like carmel color. I go for my 6 week check up tomorrow. I was told by my Dr. it's probably ph balance messed up. But it's gross and how long will it last?

HI. This looks to be an infection giving ugly discharge and odor. It is possible that the pack kelp was not removed completely. It will be ok as soon as the cause is removed and antibiotic course is instituted.
