Asked By:ChrisAF

I am 12 days post op went from a G cup down to approx C/D cup. I seem to have a lot of excess skin that has form rope like scars, RN friends have said the sutures look sloppy. I also have dark purplish skin on the incision line (he said this is "UNHEALTHY" skin & just said to use antiobiotic ointment). Also I still have yellowish slightly greenish discharge from the left breast, none from the right but I do have red inflammation. Got antibiotic today over phone, Dr said come in 2 days.
