I had a breast reduction in 2014 without any major complications except for the burning/stinging sensation that I get frequently to both nipples still. Sometimes its so bad that I have to put ice on them to feel relief. I havent noticed anything different over the years. I have great sensation to both. My plastic surgeon has retired. Is this feeling normal this long after the procedure?
I had breast reduction opeartion on 16th May 2018 ( almost 3months). The opeartion itself went really well. I never had any pains. Until few days ago. On my right side, I get a really bad stinging pain. (Feels like one of stitches opened up). Or sometimes sharp pains on both of the breast. The incision lines are red on both side. What can I do to reduce the stinging and pain??. Thanks
Hello Im a 24 year old female and I'm 31 days post opt from breast reduction reduction. Within the last week I have notice some stinging and sporadic pain that shoots through my left breast along with greenish/yellowish pus that smells horrible it comes out and leaks. I have not had any fevers. In the past I have suffered from hidradenitis suppurativa not sure that's connected. I'm just trying to see if this is normal?
At week two post op for my BR, the vertical incisions started opening. The PS prescribed Silvadene treatment twice a day and keeping the areas covered. Things look like they are improving slowly. My concern is the yellowish looking areas. Is this normal? The dark area on my right breast is not necrosis but what is left of the scab that had started to form prior to starting the Silvadene treatment. Also I'm having a slight stinging sensation at the bottom of the wound on the right side
I am 20 days post BR. My ps told me that the steri strips could be removed at 3 weeks so I removed yesterday -- I took off in the shower since they were firmly adhered! The incisions around my aerolas are not completely closed and they sting and ache now that the pressure from the tape is gone and in some areas not fully adhered. Can I apply new strips and leave on for a few more weeks?
I had a breast lift and reduction 2 weeks ago I still have my steri-strips and stitches in . I have been experiencing a stinging sensation where my steri-strip and stitches are around both breast and areola's could this be an infection?
