Post hysterectomy bleeding/ infection... what is happening to my vagina?

So... had a total hysterectomy 22.11 and keyhole wounds (one is particularly bad, the other three are trying their best to catch up) started with signs of infection 01.12 (Increasing redness, pus, pain/tenderness)

Went to OOHs GP who gave me flucloxacillin. Fine. Not cured yet but getting better.

Today same gungy pinky pus that is coming from my worst infected incision has started coming out of my vagina 🤢... it's only a bit, a few drops, reminds me of the last period wipe, just a smear of it really. However since the day of the surgery I have had NO vaginal bleeding whatsoever until today, and as far as I am aware the top of my vagina has been sutured.

So the question is.... is this infection spreading to all my surgery sites? Will the flucloxacillin clear this up at the same time or do I need to go back to GP? Is this something different? Do I need a swab? 😱

Yes, that was four questions.
