I have had dressing removed and wound has healed well. There is a build up of fluid above the wound, which hopefully will reduce in time. Is is better to keep wearing bra at night, with a softie in place, to help reduce the fluid?
Hi there, I had a lumpectomy but also developed a seroma. I wore a soft crop top style bra at night as I found this a lot more comfortable. My seroma eventually dissipated but I did have to delay my radiotherapy until it had reduced. Best wishes
