At least it is not squirting across the room when you change the dressing, like one of my daughter's surgeries. They were very calm about that and just said Yeah, it is normal in some people. Make sure that it does not soak the bandage, and it will be fine. Keep a bandage on until it stops spotting. Spotting? It was GOING ACROSS THE ROOM, and I was in a panic that she would bleed out. The bandage did make hers stop, and it did turn out fine but I am not a nurse, and the sight made me want to call an ambulance for her so she didn't bleed out in my bathroom. Normal? Nah, not so much for me. Maybe yours is just normal too, though less dramatic.
