I had a breast lift and reduction about a month ago. Had complications in my right breast, at first the incision (in the T juncture) split open due to fat necrosis, more stitches were put in, then had a staph infection that caused the wound to split open again. So had another surgery to remove infected tissue and close wound. A few days ago (3 weeks after) I noticed a little hole, today I noticed this and clear discharge. Dr says it looks like a burn, I feel like I'm also rejecting the stitches?
