BMX Jan .., Jan 25 a fold in breast turned necrotic & infection with hospitalization & surgery. Feb incision opened up 2 weeks later Surgery to close. Pseudomonas positive bacteria from cultures at that surgery. 2 other episodes of cellulitis and treatment. Finally replace tissue exspanders with implants in June. A week later an abscess ... Drained positive for pseudomonas. Developed a dimple on breast. Same side as abscess but it was drained closer to armpit. Now the dimple us turning black.
Do I need my implants removed? Is my health at risk? I tend to over think but can't help cause it's my body. I haven't been told by my doctor that I have an infection or cellulitis but I'm just going off of what the last doctors replied on my last question on here. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow with my ps.
Well I asked about the small mark left when in actual fact it seems I had a much larger issue to deal with ... I'm currently admitted to my local hospital under the Plastics ward .. I'm on iv antibiotics and theater has been prepared just in case they don't work ... I simply thought the pain and swelling I was experiencing was normal for sub muscular implants ... After noticing the pain factor go from a 3 to a 8 I went to my local clinic He rushed me to here advising I have cellulitis. I'm 11po
I had a benign fibroidadenoma removed 2 weeks. The next couple days seemed normal I had bruising and some swelling. On the 4th or 5the day the skin on my bruise began peeling off leaving thin red skin over the next couple days a dollar coin sized area was exposed and oozing. Within another couple days the would split and a large black eschar (?) formed over half the area. The open area oozes green and brown discharge.
I have a breast implant 2 yrs ago. since then the left had to be replaced. Now the left one is infected and I am on antibotics - 2 matter of fact.He is telling me that I may have cellulitis or mastitus, either way I have been on antibotics --3 different times since the last replacement. Do I need to see another doctor for a second opinion? I am worried of loosing my breast all together and may end up with staph. What do you recommend?
