Hello
It's 4 weeks since my surgery but I am still quite swollen and hard. Still looks red and bruised which I guess is normal. Gets more painful if I sit for any long periods of time and swells more. I wonder if anyone else has had similar and how long it takes for the swelling to go down. I did have a drain for 2 weeks but before it was removed nothing much was going into it.
Best wishes
Dee
Thanks Lesley, it doesn't move so I'll contact BCN.
Best wishes
Dee
