A little set back 4 weeks post op

My incisions on my right breast started “opening”. When I was researching about it, it looks like spitting stitches. It happened during NYE so my PS office was closed. I did get a hold of him via text and advised me to keep the area clean and dry. After I shower I blow dry the affected incisions under cold setting to make sure it’s try.

At first I was covering it with gauze and seems to be making it worse because every time I remove the gauze it peels of the scab creating fresh wound.

Today I’ve seen Dr. Richards and he prescribed me Bactrim PO twice a day for five days and I’ll see him for follow up after one week.

No more sucking in

I always have to suck in my stomach especially when I’m wearing a tight fitted clothes. I never was comfortable in them. Now I no longer have to “suck it in” anymore.
Almost 4 weeks post op and I’m standing straight.

I’m confident to wear cropped top now.

It’s been exactly one week post taking off my second drain. I feel so much better without it. I have been so excited to try on clothes I ordered online to see how they’d fit me now that my biggest insecurity (my belly pooch) is gone.
Here are some pictures of me trying on some cropped tops. I can’t wait for summer time when I can wear two piece bikini.
As you can see I’m not as hunch over anymore, some days I walk straighter and some days I feel pulling and tightness on my incisions and it’s usually right when I’m getting up from sleep.
