Hi anyone had fluid leaking after having there Seroma drained after a Mastectomy
Hi. Yes I have fluid leaking constantly since my surgery to remove implant in March! I change dressings several times a day. My surgeon is going to reopen the wound to “see what’s going on” but the op has just been postponed until goodness knows when. Really fed up of it now. It’s coming from the tiniest pin prick size hole!
I was put on antibiotics initially but there was no infection. Hopefully the area will heal up fully soon and the leaking will eventually stop. If it didn’t have a way out you would get swelling (which eventually goes down by itself normally).
