Red Patch on Breast 8 Months PO, This is Normal? (photo)

June 21, 2013
Asked By:redflower24

I had Breast Augmentation (Saline) 8 months ago but 3 months ago I noticed a red dot above my left nipple that I thought was a pimple and I squeezed. (No itch or pain) after weeks I noticed a red patch in the same place and is kind dry and rough still no pain or discharge. Now I have those dots in the other breast and it start to concern me. The patch still the same and no changes so far. Any recommendations? Thanks!
