7 months post-op & seroma complications, they pulled 30ccs in 5 days, what could be the cause?

ralenek
I'm 7 mos post op from lipo. I've been dealing w/ seromas on both lower abdominal areas. I've been having them aspirated biweekly and weekly since 10 days po. Left side finally closed round 5 months & the right was really almost closed as well. but 2 months later, now it's all of the sudden sore, tingly, & accumulating more fluid. I've only had to have it drained 2 times in 2 months and both times were less than 10 ccs. Now all of the sudden they pulled 30ccs in 5 days. What could be the cause?
