    I’m 6 weeks po today and everything ha gone smoothly and great… Til tonight I just realised my scar looked a bit redder than normal when I took my sports bra off after gym had shower Etc then i looked closer and there’s like a pinprick hole but when i pushed softly on it a bit of yellow puss came out then bit of blood after…it’s not a lot at all but obviously its infected right??. I rang the helpline but she didn’t say much other than put a dry dressing on and ring my clinic in morning to go and get checked but I’m working tomorrow amd cant get out of work so this is a problem!! I have my6 week check on Tuesday so will see my nurse then..but hasanyone had the same thing? Plz shell I could cry with worry feelin really upset about it!! 🙁

    i had fluid coming out of mine, not puss tho, puss is sign of an infection if its thick and yellowy, if its more watery like fluid, this could be seroma, please dont panic tho, both easily treated, i had seroma and im healing ok now touch wood!!
    but i would ring ur nurse again and try see her tomoro rather than tuesday as the quicker ur seen the better, xxx hope your ok xx

    Ye i had that aswell, they normally heal on their own if they’re small, i’m 2 months post op and i’ve just had a little infected hole, it scabbed over at the minute, i didn’t put anything on mine, don’t worry too much, it’ll be fine x
