Uploaded pics , I was gonna take steri strips off last night I had a check and thougt il leave on till tomorrow for shower as advise :).. Take off today and they look worse like I had no discharge on strips now I have discharge on one :(… And they don’t look very healed I don’t think they look ok to go bare in my bra can everyone look t the pics and tell me I’m worrying my head off. 🙁 sitting here with no bra so il prob go all saggy too. :(:( wah xx
Hey they look pretty clean to me. I can see the edges are slightly sore are try fully closed I cannot really tell it’s only right on the edges isn’t it?
Possibly have a shower but don’t use shampoo or any bubbles above the waist that way only water will get on them and no “products”

I’m just scared my bra will rub loads on them and take of any scabs and re open them :-/ I don’t wanna have to go to a walk in doctors for dressings they will have no idea about boob job scars and what’s norm will they :-/ I need to put my bra back on but I’m like stressin out … And my comfiest primark ones in the wash ahhhhhhhhhhhh hate Sundays lol mmm thanks for the word of advice though I might try the shower but iv read a few people who have said they had trouble healing and were like 3weeka p.o when they could shower :l … I think I need more dressings mmmmm x
Lottie I think you should call your nurse. They don’t look too bad on your pics but I was told to call straight away if I had any discharge or blood. Better to be safe hun! Get your shower first in case you need to have more dressings! X
Hey they dont look too bad ive had to go back twice as had 2 fall (clumsey as hell me lol) and they opened slightly and had discharge so they just cleaned them with sterilised water and put new strips on if ur worried ring them and get them checked. Ive taken mine off now but one was still slighly open so i just went to boots and bought strips myself and put one ove the end ill try uploading pics ov mine now so u can look xxx
I’ve put the pics up it’s my right one I had trouble with xxx
Thanks ladies 🙂 I’m gonna ring nurse tomorrow to w safe :)… I’m gonna have a snoop now anyway … How many weeks until u were closed up?x 🙂
I’m still only 17day hun but starts healing again within couple days but I’ve started smoking again so u cud b quicker with giving up xxx
Oh god one o mine looks a bit bleedy I can’t really see :l iv put steri strips on from boots today Actually … Really worried:( I must be lifting or stretching too much! 🙁 … I know my body I am a slow healer god knows what it be like if I was still smokin!:l worrying 🙁 xx
Lottie you gotta make sure you dont lift or stretch at all! I made sure I kept my totally dry constantly, just wash in a shallow bath and dont get water on the insicions at all. Should help a lot if you take it easy and keep it dry! Give the nurse a call though to put your mind at rest and make sure!! xx
Got an appointment at 11 thankgod hope it’s all ok and I’m worrying! I felt them last night and they seem closed … So much of been weapong or bleeding night before maybe I tore it :/ but that’s hopeful 🙂 yeah iv been lookin after my little boy and he is super heavy … May need to ask my mum if she can have home for. Few days again to let them close a day or two more to be safe :)… Thanks I do feel better though 🙂 I saw dried blood last night like 😮 but yeah doesn’t seem open iv put strips on myself so fingers crossed:) xx
I guess its better that the blood was dry than wet! Aw that must be horrible, If he is okay walking maybe just try not to pick him up too much or get a little help! Sure its fine though! Better safe than sorry either way! Maybe they will give you more meds to help. Good luck!! xx
