Asked By:Thoughtful3248 in Toronto, ON

I got an explant and lift today April 2 2019. I came home everything was fine and then I noticed I was bleeding from my left breast and it would pour down.it was bright red. I went to emergency and they stated it was normal, re bandaged me and sent me home. My surgeon has said the same thing. I’m just concerned with the bleeding and if this is a common issue? Please help!
