Call your plastic surgeon. You don't want that to get infected! All the best to you and I hope it gets better soon for you.

Does it hurt? It looks like it would be painful. I don't think I'd be waiting for that to close on its on. I'd be bugging my PS or another doctor to do something about it.

It doesn't really hurt... it sting every now and again.... it's not that its open with the meat inside.. the meat is cloesd and the skin on the outside is just not closed

Had a mental break down this morning... my daughter wouldn't listen to me.. she rolled her eyes.. I just want this to be over... I'm crying right now as I type... I'm tired of laying in the bed . I keep being extra hot .. one breast feels swollen as ever.. one drain won't drain.. and it has me worried..

It gets better, breathe and take it one day at a time. Are you able to sit up in a chair or recliner? Ice packs help to 15 mins on 15mins off or 15 mins every hr. It's your bodies way of healing.
Try milking your drain tube. I think you can YouTube how to do it, I won't explain is well without demonstrating it
Happy thoughts

Hi Crissy, I know how hard it can be trying to rely on other people that first week, maybe even the first 2, it gets old real quick especially if your family isn't as happy to help as you'd like. It's frustrating and hard to not be able to help yourself. But try to just take it in stride, getting upset and stressed won't help the healing process. Try to sleep as much as you can, just be careful not to fall asleep with ice packs on you

Keep your head up, better days are coming! Best of luck to you, crissy1107.
