I'm five years post op. I've developed a red mark on my nipple it's sore to touch and and feels raised like welt. It has no discharge flakiness and is not inverted. I've booked a drs appointment but would appreciate any advice on where to go with this in terms of an MRI ect it's a mentor textured gummy implant
I just saw my doctor two days ago to get my stitches removed. He did not seem concerned about the red marks above the incision on my left breast. He called it a bruise and said it would probably go away. I would like some more opinions on it. Is it a bruise? Could it be a stretch marks? Why is it still red after 3 weeks? How can I get it to go away as quickly as possible?
On my wits end. After PS put on Micropo tape on incision area it started to itchy like crazy with small red bumps round it. PS told me to take the tape off which I did and it seemed to settle the itchiness. Then a week later, the rash spread its all across my breast fold and bright red. PS told me to see a doctor which I did yesterday, got steroid ointment and it seemed to spread the rash even more. Can someone please share opinion?
So Im 4WPO and everything has been going fine and recovery has been great. However, yesterday I noticed that one of my incisions has started to get a red mark around one corner and Im terrified I have an infection! Im not sure whether its just where the scab came off the other day and now its re-healing or if its where my sports bra might be rubbing it, HELP! My left side is healing perfectly, Ive attached pictures below for comparison. Should I call the nurse?
Hi, I have odd marks only on the bottom of one breast that have been there for months now. It looks like perma skin irritation but strange that it's only on one breast. It looks worse in person than in photos. Is this common? What can I do to get rid of it? Not sure if this matters but it occurs on the breast that has very little nipple sensitivity. Other side is extremely sensitive.
Hi. My surgeon advised me to start my massages at 14 days, which I did. At 16 days I noticed a little red mark on my left breast first, and now today at 18 days I noticed the exact same mark in the exact same spot on my right breast. I have had very sensitive nipples but I am not massaging too hard/roughly on the breast surrounding them like they showed me... the mark is not raised or itchy... what is this? Should I stop massaging? Will this go away? Should I go to my surgeon?
I had breast augmentation 12 weeks ago. I have been getting some mild pains here and there. Shooting and burning pains now and again. I have recently had some red marks appear. Are they stretch marks and is this normal ? If yes will these go?
