lets say you get a hematoma on your breast and doc needs to drain it out and you want your breast implants removed but has only been in you for 2 weeks is this possible? is there any risks
I recently had explant and mastopexy, grade IV capsular contracture to left. Capsule removed with significant inflammation and blood evident, in last few days have had some swelling, inflammation and hardness to breast. PS says it is a hematoma, he tried to aspirate it but the blood has congealed. He said that my body should just slowly break it down and re absorb it, can I use ice packs to help with pain? Or should I apply heat? What is the best treatment?
9 days after explant, one breast swelled up, I was rushed to emergency surgery & was told it was a hematoma due to 1 of the blood vessels not dying when he cauterize it So he stitched the vein shut. Is this a bad Dr or am I just a rare case? Any insight would be helpful.
I noticed soon after explant that my right breast seemed to have some harder tissue inside. 10 months later I feel a lump the size of a small plum. It's hard and seems to be under my breast tissue on top of the muscle. Right breast has a silicone implant above the muscle. Is this a hematoma? Thanks.
Hi, I had my breast implants removed 3 weeks ago and had drains in for 5 days. My right breast has had more fluid from day one and maybe shouldn't have removed the drain so early. Now it's 3 weeks later and my PS would like to wait and see if my body absorbs. He doesn't want to aspirate because of infection risk and it just coming right back. He possibly wants to go back in to surgery in about a month and clean it out. Is it possible for my body to absorb this? How long would it take?
I had a capsulectomy 6 weeks ago. 2 days later had to have hematoma removed. 6 days after that had fluid from incision & had to go back to have fluid drained . a week later fluid was aspirated & culture negative. Had fever for a day, then slowly got better despite a few sporadic incidents of fluid coming from incision. past week had some pinkness around area where fluid was aspirated & past 3 days some fevers & this lump. Dr put me on cipro. Is this likely an infection & is my implant maybe salvageable?
