Blood blister: You appear to have a postop hematoma which is a collection of blood in the assist from surgery from small vessels which have been traumatized. Sometimes the blood can reabsorb over time but this takes a while it may be a good idea to have a doctor remove the blood and drain this blood and clotted blood.
