Asked By:nilnoc21 in Apple Valley, CA

I had a breast aug 13 days ago and on post op day 6 saw abnormal swelling above my right breast. I phoned my Dr reported symptoms and saw him the next day. He palpated the site asked questions and stated I likely had a hematoma but we should wait to see if it would resolve with rest and compression (bra and band atop my breasts. I have pain at the site not unbearable but more than other side by a good amount. I saw him again today advise to watch & wait. Looking for second opinions and advice
