I had a breast reduction done by Dr.fredrick t work December 19, 2016 . Over all there a nice size but my right breast got infected from a antibiotics . I went to the hospital they told me I had a infection, the dr. At the we called dr.work and we got scheduled to see him earlier . When I we met him that day he saw the redness and swelling and felt hard , hard as a brick . He cut one on sutures and told me that it's was gonna have to drain the blood clot by it self but as time went on it got infection were I have to go to a infection doctor. When my mother would call about it he was kind of like he really didn't care .

How are you doing now?  Did they put you on antibiotics for this infection?   This is a tough area for healing. Keep the area clean, dry and away from anything rubbing on it.  Please check back in and let us know how you are doing.

I went back to my surgeon on Friday . My mom had told him she didn't wanted students working on me since the hole was bigger . So he kept sending different student a different doctor then he finally after we asked came in . I have been to the hospital 5 time in the last 2 weeks . He said he wasn't worried about my temperature getting low he was worried about it getting high . He also told me to turn on my heat . My temperature has been up and down the highest have been 102.6 lowest 96.6 . When we went to the hospital one Saturday 7 of December he told me and my mother the hospital wasn't gonna do anything unless he says so . But now my wound is bigger stinky and it burns I go to the wound clinic Tuesday too see what they can do about it . The hospital also found a fluid pocket with either a blood clot or clear fluid or abscess . The pain is only on one side my left side is fine and healing nicely but my right not so much ..??????

So from the last time I been on here my wound has got bigger , and it is starting to come apart in other areas . I can't move my right side with out being in any pain . I have went to the wound care and the plastic surgeon there told me he would take care of me since my suregeon was NOT being helpful or caring about what is going on . We had to switch suregeon green slimy stuff is coming out with a odor and the wound clinic has giving me some infection cleaner liquid that I soak my gauze in before I pack it . But my fear is the my breast is going to bust by morning ! I don't know weather I need to go to a hospital or just wait till my next appointment. Also when I went to the hospital they found a fluid pocket at the 2:00 and 3:00 area they do not k ow if it's a cyst not blood clot what should I do about that . ? Should I follow up with my physician ? They told me if it's a cyst or still a infection they were going to have to go back in a clean it out .
