Yay! My right boob is completely doing well but my left is bruised much more and harder. Yesterday my left nipple looked a little darker-could this be from me trying to massage my bruises and hardness and it moved around? I also may have had a bandage on too tight. I don’t want to lose blood flow so how do I ensure good flow and could I just have a bruise or some blood behind my nipple? Thx for the help
