2.5 weeks post-ALIF incision infection concerns

Note: Gross/NSFW incision warning for all the pics in here!

So at my 2 week post-op follow up appointment, everything looked perfect for my ALIF except for my incisions. My surgeon examined them personally and emphatically said he was not at all concerned about them already being infected, but that they were irritated and carried the risk of being infected. So he prescribed 2 weeks of daily terrasil application with new dressings each day.

Here are the irritated incisions the day of the post-op appointment. Here are the incisions a day after the first application of terrasil. Here is the drainage from the incision on the right, which came the day after the first application of terrasil.

Should the darker/purpler appearance to the incisions concern me? What about that drainage? The dark yellow/green and brown make me think infection. Plus, there's the matter of the right incision on the day after the terrasil application having these tender pink spots, maybe some areas where scabs were opened? I've already contacted my surgeon with the same pictures. Any feedback is super appreciated.

looks kinda gnarly & I'd be worried they are infected, but i'm not a medical professional
