I'm 10 weeks post op and I have a uti. I went to a doctor and was given antibiotics within a day of noticing the symptoms and have been drinking ural. I woke up this morning with a red rash all over my body so will be giving back to the doctor today because it's an allergic reaction to the antibiotics. But I just wanted to ask if the uti will do any damage such as capsular contracture? Thanks for taking your time to help.

Answer: Will UTI cause issues in my breast implants?
You don't say how long ago you had your implants inserted. Sounds to me that you should have had an augmentation mastopexy with smaller implants. If the left breast is misshapen and hard it may signify you have a capsular contracture.
I appreciate your question.
I would recommend you follow up with your surgeon for evaluation and work up.
The best way to assess and give
true advice would be an in-person exam.
Please see a board-certified
plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.
Best...
