The tampon absorbs enough of the liquid that the liquid continues to flow the next day.It continues naturally and ends on its own the next day.There may be edema or mild swelling in this area for a few days. This is a very natural situation.

Lying on Your Back and Avoid Leaning Forward After Hair Transplantation

On the 10th day after hair transplantation, you should definitely not lie face down or put pressure on the side areas.
