The Seroma Was Drained but Now I Have a Bump Will It Get Hard? (photo)

Asked By:savannah22usus in Atlanta, GA

My TT was in Miami and I live in Atlanta, now 5 weeks post op, I had a seroma aspirated about 3 1/2 weeks ago by a sergeon here in ATL. He drained 50cc of fluid, I went back 2 weeks later however nothing came out. Now I have this bump at the top where the seroma was. It's soft but I'm scared that it may harden, and screw up my results. I can't afford to keep paying the PS to do nothing but see me. Any suggestions on what I can do?
