Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Discharge after Breast Lift?

I'm four weeks post-op. My breast has been leaking moderately for appprox 3 weeks. Am I lactating, or is this post-op discharge? Should I be worried?

It is not normal to be draining one month postop. You should return asap to your doctor for an evaluation for a problem such as a seroma or infection.
