I'm thinking that getting a seroma syringed off each week is more fun than the drain.Hey,it was an outing and I didn't feel the needle cos the scarline area was completely numb-still is.The drain might be starting to adhere to internal soft tissue and also irritating surrounding nerves.My drain site was sore for a long time afterwards.My surgeon passed it off as nerve disturbance. Anyway,talk to your surgeon- maybe it's more of a convenience for HIM to leave your drain in! I feel your pain cos I was soooo over the drain after 1 week.
