Hi

I had a lumpectomy end of June this year. 3 weeks plus I had a seroma which burst and eventually left me with an open wound. It has been cleaned out in theatre and loosely stitched but this is 3 plus weeks and it is still not healed. Has anyone had this experience? My surgeon is also frustrated as I need further treatment and I can't have it until the wound is healed.

Thanks

Lois

  • Hi Faulty, and a warm welcome to our friendly little group, though I'm sorry you find yourself here, I'm unable to offer any personal advice my friend other than to suggest you  post your question on the breast cancer forum, it is our largest forum on the community, and with hopefully have the answers your looking for. You are of course always welcome to post on here my friend, and maybe someone on here can help, but I  think the breast cancer forum is far more likely, good luck my friend, and if I can help in any way please just ask

    best wishes Eddie xx
