    I’m 18 days post op, went back to the nurse 3 days ago to get my stitches snipped cause they hadn’t dissolved. I’ve been in no real discomfort since about 6 days post op but today when changing to a comfier bra (because my left boob became achey and felt bruised) I noticed some marks where my left incision sits in my bra, yellowy/orange colour and only a little. I’ve had no weeping or bleeding at all just want to know if this is normal and if they look okay before panicking and phoning the nurse! I’ll try to attach a pic. Any help would be really appreciated as I’m getting quite worried that something has gone wrong 🙁 xx

    Hey I’m worried too I’ve got the same as you orange/yellow dots on my sports bra when taking it off around my incision/stitches area both around my nipples (had areola reduction) & under my boobs. Had my first shower today & up until then hadn’t weeped at all but still had the marks before so can’t be that! hopefully we’ve got nothing to worry about but not sure why it’s happening! Sorry can’t help you more but at least you know it’s not just you haha x

    Thank you @marie2015 at least it’s not just me haha! The pain has definitely increased since yesterday feel all swollen up again, I’m just gonna let them do whatever they need to do, crazy how much they change haha! Where did you get your sports bra from Hun in your profile pic? Is it the asda one? Xx

    The orange colour is probably the antiseptic stuff they put on you when in surgery maybe?? 🙂
    The inductions looks healthy to me, as a nurses opinion haha 🙂
