I’m not sure if it rubbed or what but I have a swollen bulge on my incision… Every time I’ve rolled to my right it’s woke me up… There’s a stitch there too so I wonder if it’s pulled it maybe… So I’m now wearing a pink peppa pig plaster on it (all I’ve got lol) and my macom. If I go to a walk in centre will I knack up the mya aftercare? X
Awh I feel happier now.. The lovely nurse from the newcastle clinic rang is and I’m having a check tomorrow at half 9.. Am glad like, just checked it there and it’s a bit wet/weepy looking… Hope it’s ok 🙁
hi @claire1984 hope your incision is ok, hope all goes well with the appointment tomorrow.
Let us know how you get on 🙂 x
Oh hun I hope it is okay, I had my plasters of today and I am scared I will rub the incisions or something.. they feel weird but obviously that is because they have been covered up since I had them done so scared they wil get infected eeekkkk xx
@mpev and @xgemzx thanks girls.. I’ve had it covered back up again until sat? I think she said sat… I’ve got spare dressings so I can change it and keep any eye on it.. It’s irritation from a stitch that’s worked it’s way out.. And I had my left breast stitches trimmed as it was poking out too.. Never had trouble like this first time round.. Fingers crossed I’ll have no more bother.. Hope you girls are well xxx
Aww well doesn’t sound too major, good to get it checked over & get the nurse to keep an eye on it 🙂
Am booked to see the nurse again tomorrow, as I rang up today to ask about my right boob mainly!
It seems to be getting gradually worse, tight, uncomfortable & painful :-/
The nurse said it’s probably just settling into the pocket & it’s the nerve endings eekkk getting paranoid it might be something drastically wrong! They are both bit sore like! You girls had any trouble like this? Xx
Ps I am 15 days post op xx
Awww fab stuff @claire1984 glad u got that sorted! @mpev my boobs are not hurting me at all now we had surgery same day didnt we? I get twinges now n again and some pain in my shoulders but other then that i just still get tired quite easily. Defo get it checked out although Im sure for just being over 2 weeks pain is still quite normal hun. xxx
@clairebowman even! silly tagging malarkie lol xx
@mpev awh I’m sure the nurse is right… We get so many feeling twinges and bits of pain there’s no wonder we worry,, it’s only natural to worry esp if it’s your first surgery.. You have no idea what to expect and to know what’s normal.. Keep us updated chick..
@xgemzx ano I’m glad.. You have gave me boob greed xx
Hey girls @gemma & @claire1984
I had my appointment this afternoon with the nurse, she checked my boobs and reassured me they are absolutely fine!
She explained again about being right handed that the right boob with probably be more painful, she also said they are settling & heeling really well! There’s no swelling! 🙂
I feel better now, thank god everything’s ok! Just got to take some painkillers! It’s still early days!
Ps I was in Ann summers earlier and was dying to try some bras on 😛 but resisted ha. Xx
My left boob was my sore one right from the beginning and is now the same one that had the most cc and is the sore one again! @claire1984 – I had my stitches trimmed down too, both times, had a nightmare the first time – the stitches worked their way out on my nipples as you describe and dissolved into green stuff leaving little holes on my nipple! All healed well though and was nothing to worry about x the nurse gave me dressings and steri strips too x my stitches on nipples took 5 months to heal completely !! I don’t trust my sports bras, I swear by my macom for first few weeks!! Xxx
Ah Realli @natalie214… I hope it sorts it self out, it’s covered but Realli tender.. Yesterday there was a greeny/ black coloured goo on the dressing.. I’ve got a stitch working it’s way out on the other side too but it’s not big enough to trim but ya can feel it.. It was the first time I’d wore the sports bra too ( was 4 weeks) post op that day.. But never mind… Are you healing good this time? How do u feel with the responsives? I’m unsure on them, a feel like my cleavage on both bressts look like straight down like in a line, no curve on them.. Wish he had of gone overs instead of unders again xx
@claire1984 I seem to be healing ok, left boob is really sore inside as in my muscle, so even after two weeks is still aching after driving!
I like the responsives, but I’ve had them from the beginning so have nothing to compare them too! I had lots of green stuff coming out! It was gross – like snot! It wasn’t infection though just stitches !! Hope it gets better for you xxxx
Ah I had the CUIs..the greeny stuff has gone now, changed my dressing this morning and it was clear.. Phew!! Hope your achyness goes away soon.. I get achy if I’ve done too much.. I try not too but running a house and looking after my four kiddies it’s hard not to do too much.. Take care chick xx
