Does your PS have an after hours phone number? I think you should call - you don't want to get infected! I'm a week away from BL/BA and pretty nervous

Hello Ladies! Thank you! Yes. I called my doctors office (answering service) and he called me back immediately. I emailed him photos and he said exactly what HappySuzy said. It is unfortunate but common. He did not feel it was infected (since he had seen me two days prior) and to call again if it gets worse. I am to put neosporin/bacitracin on it and change gauze twice per day. It is looking far better already!!!!!!

This is a fairly common occurrence, sorry to say. Check in with your doc, see what he suggests to do. Usually just means. Little longer HELAING time. Hang in there, :-DSuzy

Did you reach him? I had similiar issue (I'm 14 days post lift) and got on some more (different) antibiotics and applied Neosporin liberally! My PS didn't answer (I see him tomorrow) but GP did. Hope it works! :-)

Hi Sadie79, he called me within minutes!!! and told me to do the neosporin. It is very slowly improving......... Hope yours improves too!!

Hey there.... the SAME thing happened to me as well. I documented all of it on here... so feel free to take a look at my journey on my profile. About 2 weeks post surgery I got an infection at the inverted T area on one breast... it was horrible. It was painful... uncomfortable mostly... and takes a long time to heal... BUT IT DOES HEAL... AND YOU WILL GET better. MY PS put me on 2 antibiotics and I had to use neosporin twice a day. If you ever want to talk more about anything, feel free to private message me. I know how scary this can be. I've been there. IT will all get better though... It'll just take some time... So try and hang in there.
