Para-umbilical hernia problems

Hello,

I recently had a para-umbilical hernia repaired.

The wound is now discharging a watery, blood-stained fluid, at the rate of approx. 2 tablespoons per day. This discharge is odourless.

Is this something to be worried about?

The nurses at my GP's say it simply needs dressing daily.

Thanks
