Could this be an allergic reaction after my breast augmentation a month ago? (Photos)

Asked By:davis12345

My plastic surgeon is hours away. I received my BA December 27th, and 5 days ago I started developing a rash around my incisions. It itches but no pain is associated with it. I was scared it may be fungal but it looks like dermatitis? I’ve tried fungal cream for two days and that hasn’t helped. Also scared a steroid cream would delay healing time. The glue came off two days ago. I am very worried about it, and I can’t get into see my PS because of the weekend. Please help.
