Recurrent hematoma after a lumpectomy
You need to contact your breast surgeon ASAP regarding your recurrent hematoma. They will need to treat this expeditiously and a drain should be placed following the procedure (though it won't necessarily prevent this or a seroma 100% fo the time).

Recurrent Hematoma After Lumpectomy
It seems that you have recurrent hematoma. With a small size hematoma, your body may be able to reabsorb it. However, with a large hematoma that is expanding or giving you discomfort, you need to have it re-evacuated soon. Please see your breast surgeon.

Hematoma and breast lumpectomy
A hematoma can occur with any surgery. If you have had it drianed once, but it has come back, I suggest you contact your surgeon to be evaluated for possible re-drainage.

Hematoma after breast surgery
Hematoma can and do occur after breast surgery; unfortunately, they can reoccur after drainage. The safest thing for you is to see the surgeon who performed your surgery as soon as possible.
