Day one after op, looking flushed with slight temperature. Breasts also very hot. Is this normal?
Answer: 1 day post op Thank you for your questions. A slight fever 1 day post surgery is appropriate but my advice is to communicate with your surgeon. He or she will want to know the exact temperature reading. Increasing warmth or redness of your breasts should also be reported. Best of luck.

Answer: Post op day 1 Thank you for your question. A low grade temperature for the first 48 hours post surgery is appropriate, as can the feeling of warmth. My advice is to communicate directly with your surgeon with these concerns. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast Augmentation/Breast Implants/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/ Silicone Implants/Breast Implant Revision I appreciate your question. Since there has been a change in your post op course, please contact your surgeon so he/she cane examine you and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan at this time. 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 plastic surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: Mild fever after breast augmentation surgery Breast augmentation requires frequent and regular follow-up visits particularly in the first few days and weeks of recovery to prevent or immediately address healing problems and infection. While a slightly elevated temperature is normal after any type of surgery (during the initial healing stage), if it becomes a fever and is associated with increasing pain and persistent redness, it might be a sign of infection.Your original PS is in the best position to allay your concerns. Good luck and best wishes.

Answer: Post Op Elevated Temperature Hello,Feeling a little flushed and certainly swollen is normal post op but it is important that you contact your Plastic Surgeon about an elevated temperature as this can indicate issues requiring treatment or a problem with medication.
