My breast is opening up quite a bit 3 weeks post op? (Photo)

Asked By:littlebitz in Asbury Park, NJ

My left breast has a large opening on the horizontal incision. I saw my surgeon 3 days ago, and she removed some sutures that I was spitting. She told me my wound would get worse before it gets better, but I’m concerned about the size and overall appearance of it. I’m also getting some smelly, greenish discharge.
