I had gynecomastia surgery 6 months ago and I still have a lump on one side that I believe is scar tissue. I have recently started massaging again after I did not for months. After I massage it to break it up it typically swells up and my breast looks swollen. Is that normal?
I had gyno surgery 86 days ago and have just had my last checkup. My doc said everything is good but I still think it looks like gyno. The left side still has puffiness under and slightly around the nipple making a protruding look. Right nipple is less puffy. I can see the puffiness through shirts and makes me worried its permanent. I know theres scar tissue under the nipple but dont see how it would cause the soft and puffy nipple. puffiness seems to be worst the day after massaging the scar
I'm two months post op after Gynecomastia Surgery. I had a minor case of Gyno with glandular tissue beneath each nipple but the surgeon felt it best to just do Lipo. Right under my nipple is VERY sensitive to the touch - painful - i can't even sleep on it yet and the small glandular tissue that was there seems even more pronounced and possibly swollen. My surgeon prescribed Betamethasone Dipropionate topical ointment. I wanted to check in with you guys before using it. Will it help ?
7 weeks post op. After surgery my right side was always a lot more swollen than the left. A couple weeks later the right side started to even out with the left. All of a sudden this morning my right side is larger/ might be swollen. My surgeon said its not seroma or hematoma, he said it feels hard inside and could be scar tissue. He said to massage it super firmly to break it down. If it doesnt subside in 2 weeks he wants to inject a steroid to break it down. What are you thoughts on this
I got gynecosmastia surgery 9 days ago and my vest taken off 4 days ago. When that happened I saw that my left side was more swollen than the right, I noticed my surgeon observe that side without saying a word as it was probably too soon to comment on.Yesterday I made a poor decision and played basketball. My chest was immediately sore afterwards and the swelling increased significantly on the left side and my breast looks like it's about to pop. Will everything be alright?
The nipples were not so puffed up after removal of the tapes and it has swollen only recently. I just fear it will never go away as it has already been 2 months. The doctor said it would at least take 6. But the hard lump makes me think the scar tissue is here to stay. Will it go away?
I had a revision surgery 6 weeks ago to remove scar tissue left after the first surgery. The incision is healed and I have no pain, but I can tell I still have some swelling, and some hardness/lumpiness. I was told by my surgeon I could lift after 6 weeks, but I'm just wondering if, with the swelling and lumps, if it's still ok to lift. I know the swelling is not due to fluid because I had a seroma with my previous surgery, so I know how to tell the difference between fluid and regular swelling.
Not sure about gyno surgery results. I'm currently 8 days post gyno surgery. He did a combination of lipo & gland removal. So far however, I'm not sure about the results... I mean it looks like he just removed a small amount of gland but pretty much all the fat is still there. The obvious thing people might say is that I'm too impatient and I need to wait, but my problem with that is, that is doesn't feel like it's swollen at all. It just feels like a lot of fat is still present in my lower chest.
I am one week post op vaser lipo gynocomastia surgery. I have been wearing my vest religiously and this morning the bandages came off. I am now in a lot of pain and am incredibly swollen, almost to the point that they are the same size as they were post op. Is this normal or should I be concerned?
So i had my opperation done on march 27th and it is now july 8th 2015. My right side looks great nice and firm but my left side feels hollow and draps down. It still haves a puffy look instead of flat. I would like to know if this is going to stay like this or if my chest still healing and would the skin shrink. I exercise, and message my chest often. Im assuming its scar tissue but it has that puffy feeling to both sides under the nipple area. Would i need a 2nd surgery. Thanks for the help :).
