Asked By:GoGina2018 in Philadelphia, PA

I'm 5 weeks Post op and bumped into my husband's razor, grazing my nipple, the nipple has been cut, very minor, though. I want to know since it bled am I at risk for my implant to get infected. I cleaned the area and applied triple anti biotic ointment. I have 750cc SRM Inspira's
