Got bumped. Created wound separation?

WORTH IT$15,000
Now I have wound separation in the other boob, in the vertical incision. Might be connected to a freak accident a few days ago when something heavy fell on my shoulder. That is the side that has been looking bigger. Swelling maybe? The wound separation is just under the nipple, it looks like it might affect the shape of the nipple slightly. Am feeling pretty glum about it because I've been so careful. The other incisions are healing fine at this stage.

I have had major healing issues with my incisions and my surgeon just left them dry and did no debridement of the slough. I ended up with deep sores under my nipples. These did not start to heal until I asked for a second opinion and was put under the care of a district nurse who used Medihoney. They started to heal immediately at that point.

Sorry about your wound separation. I had something similar happen at right around the same time. Mind is right under the nipple on the left side. It's funny because that was my better side right from the start but then it got the red spot so it became the problem one. It looks bigger now too, I'm hoping it's swelling from that extra irritation and it will go away.

Now back to the smaller bra!

So I wore an XL for a few days... then it suddenly started feeling too big so I'm back to the L. Did I have a few days of extra swelling? Don't know.

Today one boob looks bigger than the other

Kiwigirl33July 11, 2016
Just noticed this. Not sure if it has always been the case or if it is to do with swelling. They look different to the naked eye but not quite as different as they look in photo. It is five weeks today. Tenderness mostly gone but still feel activity going on in there

I have noticed that myself, one usually looks bigger in photos but not when I look at them in the mirror. Also they look bigger when I take a selfie (use the backwards camera on my phone) than when I take a picture of them in the mirror with the regular camera. I wonder which is more representative of what other people see?

Yes I find that too with the backwards camera. Hopefully mirror is what is telling the truth!

I have the same thing. When I look at them in the mirror, I think they look pretty even. In a selfie, one def. looks different than the other. Interesting that others have the same observation. And when I ask hubby, he says they look fine.

I think maybe it is a perspective thing, holding the camera with one hand means you are standing a bit skew wif.

Nah.... you all just have messed up boobs.
Lol couldn't resist. I have the same thing going on. This actually makes me feel better because I was just in front of the mirror going "huh?!".
I'm hoping in a few months it will be ok.
