Asked By:Nikki2104 in Ukiah, CA

I'm 4 weeks post op breast lift and implants come Tuesday I'm slightly concerned with my right breast it appears to be looking like its going to spit my dissolveable stitches but at my bottom incision it's white/yellow fleshy looking and looks oily I'm worried incase it's an infection. I spoke to my nurse today and explained to her and she seems to think its just stitches?
