Asked By:MDare in Eureka, CA

I am 40, I have been on Nystatin oral suspension for two months for Thrush on tongue, yet it's not cleared up yet. I have a breast augmentation (over the muscle) scheduled in 1.5 weeks. Is this likely to postpone my surgery? The Thrush never progressed past a white/yellow appearance on tongue, no bumps. How worried should I be that this may postpone my surgery? Thank-you

Can I still get a breast augmentation if I have a third nipple? (Photo)
Brooke R. Seckel, MD, FACS says:

Yes, it is very common to have an accessory nipple. Fortunately yours is right in the inframammary crease and can be removed with your infra mammary crease incision during breast augmentation. Actually I did this on a patient last week and it worked very well.
