Seroma
Hi girls,
Is it normal to have a Seroma after 4 months of surgery (double mastecomy) and have had it drained 13 times!?!?!
I'm worried that there is something wrong. My surgeon isn't too concern...
After my mastectomy in 2010,I kept getting a seroma fill up along my scarline. I had to have it drained 2 or 3 times a week for 5 weeks and then it settled down.So I guess I went over 13 times to have it drained. Having it go on for 4 months sounds a longish time.But if clear to slight blood stained fluid comes out each time and not pus or bright blood then I guess it's ok.If you get alot of pain or a temperature then that would also indicate a problem.
