Answer: Tissue necrosis of breast
it looks like in your photos that you have an open wound with necrotic( dead) tissue that probably needs further debridement( cleaning by cutting out the dead tissue out ). You should see your doctor to be properly evaluated.

Answer: Foul Odor from breast
Thanks for your question and photos. I would definitely contact and be evaluated by your plastic surgeon sooner rather than later. The pictures demonstrate further tissue necrosis and the odor can be coming from either the dead tissue or from an infection. Please go and see him/her immediately.
