doctor said blood is too thick to aspirate . told me to wait it out .. I'm afraid that my breast is going to get deformed.. and will the hematoma come out on its own .. I feel it pretty big like a tangerine right below my nipple and it hurts..
Hi I am 10 days post Op after breast reduction and after 5 days my nipple started to go a kind of black colour and looked like dried blood, today after I showered the skin started to peel from my nipple revealing pink tissue, my surgeon said this is normal but Im just hoping I can get a second opinion as I am so worried that Im going to lose my nipple
I had what seemed to be a blood blister appear 2 days after breast reduction surgery.The blood blister has since popped and I've been giving instruction to put perscribed antibiotic cream 2 times a day. I was curious to receive any opinions on what this may be and what the percentage might be of it healing on its own or needing medical attention? I was told a skin graft may be a consideration if it is not healing well. Thank you for your time and expertise.
Hey Im 5 days post breast reduction..recovering rather well, i had my dressings removed yesterday day and the difference is huge.. i had more than 2.8 pounds removed between my breasts, 1.8 from my left. My question is.. is it normal to still be spotting blood and yellow fluid? And my left breast feels really firm, its bruised and the nipple looks dark purple.. i couldnt take pics because i feel like fainting every time i look at them :(
Hey there! I had a breast reduction on June 1st. About 5 days ago my areola began to fall off, which I heard could happen so I am not too upset. But now I have this huge open wound that is really puffy and swollen. The first day of the intense swelling (2 days ago) there was a lot of puss and blood. I have been treating it with a spray my surgeon recommended along with Aquaphor. Will it heal and close on its own or do you think I need to find someone to close the wound? Should I be worried?
4 weeks post op, and had quit smoking a week prior to surgery. My PS was aware that I had quit a week before, and havent smoked besides 1cigarette a couple nights ago. The area isnt red or inflamed, little pain and every time I remove the gauze, there is a dark dark red blood. This has been around for about two weeks, im just curious of how long it is going to take to heal, and will my one cigarette affect this wound?
I had a breast REDUCTION and lift on the 20th of March in Miami Fl. I live in Texas. I have been writing and sending video to him but he has just advised me to see my PCP. I have an appointment with her Tuesday. My problem is, I am losing a lot of blood. I wake up 2 or 3 times a night and have to change my dressings becouse I am soaked in yellowish, pinkish blood and puss. Is this normal amount of leakage?how do I close the wounds? Who should i go see and how soon? I'm in so much pain.
I have dissolvable internal stitches and only tape externally. One of my underneath scars hasn't quite fully healed as yet and I'm still getting a little blood on the gauze. How often should I shower?
