Post-Op Gynecomastia (4 weeks) - Very firm and sore lateral chest lumps. What is causing it and what could help it? (Photos)
guy2201Nov 17, 2016
I had lipo on my chest, abs, and flanks. The only problem areas I have are my lateral chest and pubic area which have very similar firm, immobile, sore patches. My surgeon said that aggressive massage and kneading will help, but I am worried that could add to the inflammation. I've had 5 lymph drainage massages which are not too aggressive. Can this area turn to scar tissue? Could kenalog help? Is the compression garment (tank top) blocking the healing process (it digs in to this exact area)?
