Help! 9 days post op BA and I have a nasty allergic reaction from the glue! (Photo)

Asked By:Ouch15 in Florida, FL

I am 9 days post op breast augmentation and I developed red, inflamed and itchy swelling around both under breast incisions. They were fine the first 4 days and then I believe a sports bra irritated them. The PS also thinks I’m having an allergic reaction to the glue used, so he removed it. It got worse after glue was removed (probably from all the touching). Yesterday I was prescribed a 21 day 4mg Medrol pack. When will this start to help? I feel like my incisions are covered in fire ants.
