Seroma

Hi yes I had a Seroma in my groin after my SNLB.

It was quite large and a bit uncomfortable to start with.The skin cancer team monitored it and it was examined at each quarterly Ultrasound.Like you they said they would prefer not to drain it and that the fluid would be absorbed back into my body and it did.It took a good few months but it gradually got smaller and eventually my Ultrasound and CT scan confirmed it had gone.

Hope that helps?

2 years down the line all is OK still.

Thanks for the response, mine is under armpit, quite noticeable , pliable and awkward position.  Stitches out Monday so will get to check it, just have to watch for infection and sent specialist nurse photos on Monday to see if they want me in. They seem mostly concerned my possible infection and preventing that.
