English term or phrase: drainage
WHEN TO CALL YOUR DOCTOR:
· Fever (>100.4°F or 38.0°C) or chills.
· Incision problems, such as redness, warmth, swelling or foul-smelling drainage.
· Severe nausea or persistent vomiting.
· Bright-red vaginal bleeding (soaking >1 pad/hour) or foul-smelling vaginal drainage.

Mi pregunta es: "drainage" en este contexto se refiere a flujo vaginal con mal olor o se refiere a drenaje de la incisión.
Gracias por su ayuda. Es la única información que tengo.

Spanish translation:drenaje
Explanation:
Según el Libro rojo de Fernando A. Navarro, "drainage" puede tener el significado de desaguar o evacuar los líquidos y las secreciones de una herida, o bien el de supuración.
"Flujo vaginal" es "vaginal discharge".
Mi propuesta en este caso sería "drenaje vaginal maloliente".

secreción (de herida quirúrgica; drenaje) / flujo vaginal


Explanation:
En el primer caso parece referirse específicamente al drenaje de la herida quirúrgica mientras que en el segundo al flujo vaginal. Podrías traducir ambos como flujo, construyendo bien la frase, o bien como drenaje o secreción (primero) y flujo (segundo).
