Does seroma cause fatigue? (photos)

A seroma per se probably would not cause fatigue. However a low-grade infection within a seroma could certainly contribute to this. Ultimately you are facing surgery. Were your implants texturized?

A fluid collection should not cause fatigue. As well, it is abnormal to spontaneously get a seroma a breast augmentation. Three years out from surgery. Yes, it could be caused by a ruptured implant or a "double capsule ", but a full workup is important to rule out other causes of swollen lymph nodes, fatigue, etc. At the very least, the fluid surrounding your implant needs to be sent for microscopic evaluation. Something is going on, so just make certain that this workup does not cease until you have an answer, the integrity of the implant is determined, and the nature of the seroma is examined.Good luck--Dr. SubbioBoard-Certified Plastic SurgeonNewtown Square/Philadelphia, PA

This is definitely a situation that you should pursue sooner rather than later with your primary care physician. I am in agreement with my colleagues that you should be diligent in getting evaluated from a medical standpoint. Your symptoms are concerning and may or may not be related to your implant, but it definitely warrants evaluation. Best of luck.

I think you should make an appointment with your surgeon to be assessed in person. Although your symptoms could be due to the seroma, it would be prudent to make sure that nothing else is going on with your health. My best,

If your seroma is from a low grade infection, it might contribute to fatigue. However, you may have more than just a seroma, and do need to be seen by your medical doctor as well as your plastic surgeon. Your enlarged lymph nodes also may be a concern.
