I'm a little over 6 months post op from my Breast Aug. under the muscle, incision under the breasts. I'm naturally really sweaty so i get botox in my armpits to help with sweating... although i have NEVER smelled. since my surgery i've been getting more of a musty sour odor coming through from my armpits and the botox didnt even help with the sweating!! just wondering if this will eventually go away or if there was anything i can do?!!
I am 3 weeks post op. I have been experiencing sig. drainage from my R breast incision. Im on 500mg Cipro BID. Drainage is mostly serous w/o odor. Ocassionally dark yellow. No redness or warmth to the breast. Slight erythema to peri-wound area. But the picture I took appears to show a tunnel and I can feel the air moving into what feels like a pocket of space when I change the dressing. I go back on Mon, but what are the possible next steps, and best/worst case scenarios. Im scared.
Two weeks post op i had my stitches taken out. Shortly after i had a crazy amout of fluid drain out of one of my breast. This has been happening for about 3 days straight now, an entire pool of fluid spilling out onto the floor. No odor, no fever, and my dr put me on antibiotics. My question is, is this amount of fluid normal, how long is the fluid going to continue to spill out for, and do I need to go back to the dr to check the incision or fluid, or just stay the course? Thank you.
I have been healing tremendously and so happy! At 20 days the scabbing started to separate from the incisions. As I was cleaning the incisions my pressure non-forcefully encouraged the left scab to come off. Followed by slight redness and discomfort for an hour. I took a shower and put steri-tape on both of my incisions. At day 22 I took the tape off and noticed a small amount of brown puss along with a very slight odour (left). Is this infected? Again, no pain or discomfort just worried.
Two days ago i noticed a foul smell and a tiny bit of brownish/reddish discharge on my right incision at the bottom of my areola. Called my doctor and he said to take off steri strips and wash the area. I tried taking off the steri strips and at the bottom of the areola where the discharge is coming from looked like it was peeling off and there was some white gooey stuff. i taped it back and called my Doctors office they said to go in tomorrow so he can remove the steri strips. I'm worried.
My silicone implants (through the nipple) are ten years old and I know that they don't last forever so I've been thinking about removing them without replacement, which I cannot afford. I know what my body odor smells like but the smell that's coming from under my breasts is disgusting. I am going through menopause after a hysterectomy over a year ago but this happened even before then. I'm scared that there is leakage and that's the reason for the smell?
