I had a breast lift with nipple graft and augmentation on jan 6, 2013. Week after stitches were removed, I pointed out a hard lump on inner left breast between nipple and chest wall, ps said not to worry. It's about the size of a golf ball. My left nipple also still has a small blk scab on it from the surgery. My ps said that it's fine and eventually it will turn to liquid and he will drain it.how long does it take to turn liquid. Will it reabsorb? Should I push for it to be removed or just keep waiting?
