Clear oily discharge out of my nipple a pinhole opening, almost 3 months post breast lift reduction with gel implants. (photos)

Asked By:healthandlove in Alexandria, VA

Yesterday I Had Discharge From one nipple, it is odorless, clear and at end yellowish from one of my nipples (tiny whole). I called my surgeon and showed him these photos and he said that is normal, that it was leftovers from my internal sutures. I wanted a second opinion just in case. I did squeeze my nipple yesterday to get all the liquid out, today it has been a little painful, I'm assuming that is due to the squeezing. My breast is not swollen, not red and I don't have a fever.
