Need a Few Answers

My left breast is healing very nicely, the dissolvable stitches have disappeared completely from what I can see. The dead/dying skin is still there, but a smaller amount, and the incision is probably less than an inch away from being completely closed. The right breast - being the larger of the two - had much more tissue taken out and is swelling more than the left. That is not what worries me, though. I am worried because the incision on my right breast is much wider than the left one. I can see the skin and blood underneath very clearly because it is about 2 inches wide still, if not more. There is little to no dead skin on this side and it looks pretty normal. I haven't seen or felt anything that causes panic of infection that I know of, but this is my first surgery and I'm not sure what that would look like. I keep telling myself it's just taking longer to heal because it was such a big difference in the amount of tissue taken out and that the swelling has something to do with it. I have a check up in about a week, but I would like to know a little more before going in. Can anyone help me or give me some advice?

Just a Few Worries

It's been 1 month and 3 days since my surgery, my next appointment isn't until March 17th because my doctor said everything looked perfect at my last post-op. I'd been wearing gauze in my bras since the day after my surgery, but I noticed that when I got out of the shower there was a thin layer of a whitish-green slime over my dissolvable stitches. I panicked and asked a friend who had the operation 7 years prior if this was normal, she asked for a picture so I sent one, and she said it looked completely normal and told me to give it about 2 more weeks before I got nervous. Just this past Monday I tried wearing a bra without the gauze and had to rip the fabric out of the incision site. One of the incisions started to bleed semi-heavily and of course I panicked. The greenish layer is no longer slimy, rather it is just hard and dry. There are areas under this that I can still see open flesh and some blood. Should I be nervous or am I just not used to the healing process? I have little to no pain during the day or when I'm sleeping so I'm not sure if it is an infection or not. Help me please :-D

Dr. Flannagan was so easy to talk to. Being a younger patient who had never had any type of surgery, I was unaware of so many things but he covered each and every one of them for me. He was completely professional as well as being one of the friendliest people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Dr. Flannagan is extremely qualified and he does amazing work. He made me comfortable immediately and was very patient with me. I would recommend him 10/10 times to anyone within driving distance. Outstanding. The nurses were amazing as well; I was waited on hand and foot during my overnight stay. I could not even think of one complaint because my caregivers were comparable to angels.
