Asked By:karentoups in San Francisco, CA

I had a mastectomy in O6'. I'm on my third set of implants.. Round gel first then gummie style and now a more shaped firmer implant... Problem in red splotchy on both, but the left side of my left breast is really red.. No fever. I'm on antibiotics, but if it doesn't calm down or go away my surgeon said it would need to come out!!!! What?? I think it's red breast syndrome
