i am 2 weeks post op and i noticed my strips were bleeding ..under the breast... The bleeding isn't bad. It's like a light bloody nose. But the bleeding hasn't stopped. I've applied pressure and band aids that seemed to help. I also had to return to work and it requires me to life paitents. Not lifting over 20 bls and it doesn't hurt.
