John Philip Di Saia, MD answers: Orange fluid nipple discharge after breast augmentation?

So I had a breast augmentation done almost 6 months ago, and at 3 months developed capsular contracture on left breast. I have been on accolate for 2 months, and now just recently my right side is starting the same thing.

There's very orange colored fluid coming out of the nipple when I push or massage them- what's that? Also my skin on my chest breaks out a lot, and I use stuff from the dermatologist to put on it- would that cause anything?

Hello,

There could be many different things happening here. See your surgeon and get this worked out. The "breaking out" on your chest is not normal, but again it is not something to treat yourself without your surgeon's guidance.
