Bleeding, weeping and feeling like I'm being split in two. Any suggestions?

August 23, 2016
Asked By:squirrelfox in Morden, GB

I had a breast reduction 15 days ago. Now I am still bleeding and one side is weeping. When I walk I feel like I am been split in two across where my cleavage was. Should I be concerned. I am due back to work but still very uncomfortable. Everything I have read seems to be recovered in 2 weeks with no pain! Thanks
