Hi, I am 11 days post op from breast reduction and since the 4th or 5th day it has been oozing yellow puss it doesnt have a smell but I am still really worried that its infected my surgeon said it will be fine but I would just like a second opinion as I am very nervous about getting an infected
Hello Im 23 years old I have recently got a breast reduction in October 15 2018 but my left boobs just keep peeling Im 4month post op and its still not heeling it get really dry and leaks little pus around the nipple. I did have some issues heeling I had got an infection but I was given antibiotics and I was rejecting stitches does that have anything to do with it and why its taking so long to heel .
So Im about 5 weeks post breast lift and reduction, and of course I have stitching all around my nipples as well as down the breast underneath in the form of a G. I was instructed to put new tape after showering when Im dry. However, I came across a small hole like shape with some (a bit) of pussing coming out of it, directly under my nipple along the stitches. What do I do about it? Should I apply something to it? Should I still put my surgical tape over it or let it dry first?? Let me know:)
I had breast reduction on March 9. Then on June 4 I had surgery to clean out fatty necrosis of the right breast. Since July all my homes have healed and surgeon released me. I now have an old hole at the base of the the incision oozing push. What is going on? Could I lose my breast?
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?
6 weeks post reduction surgery I developed a staph infection. It resulted in a small opening in the nipple and puss has been draining for 3 weeks now. At this three week point an S-Scar is falling off and I have a new opening with pus coming out. In addition I have fat necrosis. I was given a 10 days of antibiotic and completed that.
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 had breast reduction surgery on 1/8/18 but a couple days ago I noticed foul smelling pus coming from my incision site. I saw my PS yesterday who said it isnt anything to be worried about and to wash with soap, keep it dry, and put a band aid on it. My next appointment with him isnt until 2/6/17 and I am worried that the wound is getting worse and may need more care than I am giving it. The other breast is starting to leak the same pus. What should I do?
I have this opening at the inverted T and it started dark red, but has started getting greener over a few days with a small amount of discharge. I saw my surgeon a few days ago and it seems to have become more pus filled. The doctor said to put dry dressings on and change it three times a day. The tape has caused a really painful burn. I have Neosporin on it now, but it's so painful that it hurts to wear my bra. Is there anything I can do for either problems before I see my doctor this week?
