Seroma and dressing off

Hi all

I'm looking for done advice as my BC clinic are not helpful.

I went to have my dressing off 2 days ago, and they also drained off 150ml of fluid.  I knew the fluid could come back but didn't realise it would be the next day.   Any tips on what to put under my armpit, so that it doesnt rub when walking? At the moment I'm just using a couple of large square cotton pads, but maybe there's something better?

Also, the scar looks awful, as if someone has just hacked at the skin.  I didn't know what to expect as I've been lucky not to have a scar before.

Thanks in advance x
