[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. The white fluid coming out is the lymphangiocele. You should do a laboratory tests to diagnose the condition. Laboratory can confirm the diagnosis by microscopic and chemical examination. Only proper surgery can cure this condition. Medical management can only give temporary benefit. I suspect that your first surgery is not proper so that it recurred. You can maintain good hygiene by frequent cleaning and Chat Doctor.  This will prevent the infections. Your current goal is to avoid the infection. Once you received proper surgery all your problem will be cured. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/
