incision help Started by: Laura

I would suggest calling the out of hours stitches can be rejected by the body which is true and may need to be snipped from either ends. If your breaSt’s feel very warm to touch and appear with red patchy skin, strong odor from near incisions and oozing white mucus then I would worry. With tenderNess it’s totally normal but you may have a bacterial infection on the scar antibiotics should clear that up or it could be nothing at all but your body healing in its own way x

Ye it’s really strange, some days it looks open and then looks scabby and closed , it’s fine at the min but the incision is definatlwy bruised, but I think that was my sports bra rubbing on it, iv ha problems with that incision since the beginning tho, it’s always been itchy and I developed blisters from the steri strips so were uncovered from 5 weeks, iv also had a lump under my incision where the bruise is and the nurse said it was fine.
If you had an infection I’m sure you would know
