On Feb 9th 2021 I underwent a breast augmentation with liposuction. Things went well during surgery and I went home within the day. On day four post op I noticed some rashes, minor. Thinking it was due to the new garment I tried to put a tshirt underneath. The next day it was worse. So I called and they put me on topical steroid and Vistaril. Within that night symptoms were so severe I went to ER where they provided a Solu Medrol shot and a prednisone pack. I am now on day 4 of the prednisone and I am still getting new flare ups! The PS thinks I am allergic to the surgical glue so he had me put Vaseline on the incision sites and remove the compression garments. I started the rash heavy on my flanks and now it is coming around to my stomach and on my chest. The chest is the newest to flare today and my first spots are turning purple and very dry. Can anyone advise how much longer I am going to have endure this? Updated on 19 Feb 2021: Chest is looking better but my upper flanks are enraged. I am halfway through Prednisone pack and still feel slow progression. Not sure what else to do. I Incorporate aquaphor with steroid cream as well. I have removed all compression including bra to keep the irritation down. Not on antibiotics at this point. Anyone else seen anything like this?
