A member asked:
Is it ok to have a little fluid in abdomen or is that bad?

It depends: Your doctor should help you to interpret this finding. Normally we do not want to see free fluid in the abdomen. If you have it it needs to be followed up and rechecked in a couple of months to be sure it has resolved and that it is not increasing. Follow it up with your doctor.
