Hello everyone! My cat recently got spayed (last Thursday) and for the last couple days, I have noticed some swelling under and to the side of her incision. Does this look normal, or do you think that it is a seroma or a hernia? Please help!
Also, it looks like her sutures are loose, but I took her to the vet, and he said that they were good 🤷‍♀️

She also only pooped once since the spay but was constipated with that...at the time I was wondering if it was from the anesthesia, antibiotics (she got a three-day course of them after her spay) and because I changed her food, but now that it has been about 6 days since she pooped, I'm really starting to worry.

Its a little difficult to see the amount of swelling because of the purple stain. Can you send the photo to your vet for his opinion just to be on the safe side.
