How long after Breast Reduction surgery is a bump or hit to the chest not dangerous?

bramirez2988Dec 13, 2016

I am two weeks post op. I have a 90 lb dog that thinks she's a puppy and jumps on me and her paws bump me in the breasts when she does. I haven't been around her during this time, only when she's on her leash. I'm wondering when can I resume contact with her? If she were to jump on me when is it safe to do so?

The dark red color could be a sign of a fluid collection trapped under the skin of the axilla and your doctor should be examining you to determine if that is the case. Lymph leaks and seroma formation is very common in that area. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
