Hi I had a breast reduction on dec 21 2021, I am fully healed and feel fine I noticed two of my stitches were raised and when prodded/squeezed, white stuff would come out . I went to the doctor and she said its fine and to squeeze it out and gave me topical antibiotics. Its been about a month and theres still white stuff coming out of the stitches holes kind of like a pimple. they were dissolvable stiches. so im wondering is it fine or is something wrong thank you
Hello Drs I have a problem I did a breast reduction 5 years ago had a spit stitch but it never bothered me and I assumed with time that the stitch would dissolve on it own and it never did now the spit stitch has flipped now on the inside on my boob and I can see the tiny little hole and the blue stitch itself and its been bothering me, can someone please direct to how to fix this and how much? My original has retired and referred to some colleagues but they were out of state.
I did my breast reduction back in June 2006 and two months ago I started feeling a lump in my left breast right side the lump. The lump went but today started feeling a itvh wet to scratch and the skin burst there was white stuff with bloodcomin out it has now left a smll hole in my breast.
My surgery was 2.5 weeks ago. I was instructed to use paper tape over my vertical incision. I have a lollipop reduction. I had the paper tape on for the last week and removed it yesterday to clean and change it. I felt a sharp stitch poking through the incision on the second two pics. I also noticed a small hole forming on the first two pics. I phone the office and they said ps was away until Monday next week. I have to wait. Does this look like immediate attention is needed or can it wait?
I also had a small white blister pop earlier today and it left a tiny hole. Is this a problem? I'm going to call my surgeon, I'm just not sure how soon I'll get an appointment *photos may be upside down. Sorry
Ive gone to my doctors office three times for help, I informed him 1st time I was in pain & felt pulling(no wounds just stitches) next appointment Im in pain the stitches are sticking out in hole area the doc. removes them I inform him Im in pain I go back today and see a physician the hole is bigger they say it will heal from inside out use antibiotic cream and keep dry! Now hours later its bugger my entire arm, chest and beast area hurts. Is this normal for the hole to increase in size?
breast reduction Jan 29. trouble with left breast.started as a small whole then got bigger.has a mild odor and draining. Was told that its tissue that didnt survive and is draining. asked for an antibiotic and have been changing my dressings.beginning to scab now.right breast was ok but now its starting to do the same thing. Its draining some fluid. Im scared to get an infection or a much larger whole or even a skin graft. I was thinking about getting a second option. What do you think?
I had a breast reduction Nov. 21, was healing great until about two weeks ago when a small hole appeared my left breast. I called my surgeon the next day and they said everything I described as normal, just drainage, but its been two weeks now and the hole appears bigger! Its draining yellow pus, no foul odor, and Im not experiencing any sickness so I dont think I have an infection, Im just concerned with how it is healing. Should I schedule an appt?
So Im about 5 weeks post breast lift and reduction, and of course I have stitching all around my nipples as well as down the breast underneath in the form of a G. I was instructed to put new tape after showering when Im dry. However, I came across a small hole like shape with some (a bit) of pussing coming out of it, directly under my nipple along the stitches. What do I do about it? Should I apply something to it? Should I still put my surgical tape over it or let it dry first?? Let me know:)
