Asked By:Hanna0218 in San Francisco, CA

I’m 19 days post-op after my BA and I dont think my incisions are closing. I’ve been in good contact with my PS and he states they’re closing. I see No healing. They look the same 1 week ago. Sometimes they’re really itchy and red other days they have a little pus coming out and looks like slimy or something oozy coming out. He took my stitches out 7 days after my surgery and after that they’ve been open. I just want someone else’s opinion pls, I’m really worried.
