4 weeks post op, I have a dehiscence wound on my lower part of breast. What treatment would you recommend? (photo)

Asked By:flolotrowski in New York, NY

The surgeon has been draining this twice weekly. I'm worried that even when this does heal, I will have a scar. Is there anything I can do, besides diligently using an antibiotic and changing the dressing?
