Question

There is no open wound, there are small scares from the surgery. any suggestions why this might be happening ? Could it be something in the breast glands ?

Thank you for your question. Is the odor coming from the nipple or the breast itself, or perhaps from the incision? Until you find the source of the odor, it is going to be hard to figure out the cause. However, I would not classify this as normal and I would encourage you to see your surgeon or your regular doctor to be evaluated.
Best of luck!

Dear cosmo17,without an examination it is impossible to tell what might be the problem. I would suggest you to consult your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS
