I had transferred to my breast on Monday. I went to my post op appt on Friday and we noticed some redness. The plastic surgeon said to watch it and prescribed me more of the antibiotics for another week. It doesn’t hurt and I do not have a fever. God forbid it is an infection what will have to happen?
