I'm having trouble after second surgery with draining

fishergirlcandy · August 2012

I ended up with an infection and after intervenus treatment 3 times a day and oral antibiotics, my breast keeps filling up with fluid. When it gets full, it starts to drain out of my incision site. This has happened 3 times now. Saw the surgeon about it and of course my breast behaved that day. What can I do about it? Is there anyone who has had this problem?

Fisher--do u have a drain in u?

No drain. I had trouble before I saw my surgeon and went to the local hospital who tried to get the leaking under control. Saw the surgeon the next day and there was no leaking. When I got home, it started all over again. It has let loose once more since then, so all together, 3 times. I don't see the surgeon till Thursday now.

OK well if I were u I'd call tomorrow and tell hime exactly what's going on--I might have misunderstood but he might want to put a small tube for drain/but u at least have to call and tell him and see whst he wants to do.
