Asked By:emilysouthard in Pineville, LA

I am 4 weeks post op from having breast augmentation. My right breast is hard, swollen, and was very pain but pain has lessened. Now my stitches seem to be infected and are leaking clear yellow fluid. The stitches are scheduled to come out in 2 days, 3 weeks post op. What does this sound like?
