    If it’s constantly loads you’ll have to call the nurse hun, Seroma and swelling can be hard to tell but if one is more swelled then the other and has straw colour fluid then it’s better get this checked hopefully it’s nothing x

    Called nurse waiting for them to get back to me its just a clear liquid (very slightly red) not sticky and not smelly like an infection and not sore

    Good good – let us know what they say wont you – when it comes to health I’m such an overthinker and over worrier i know I’ll drive my nurses MENTAL lol!! Hoping everythings fine babe xxx

    It could be a very minor infection, a seroma wouldn’t usually have the yellow on the scaring. I hope it gets sorted hun x

    They told me to come it and get it checked out on Monday if it gets any worse gonna pop in and see my gp and see if antibiotics needed as I have a 300 mile round trip and if it only needs antibiotics then my GP can handle it

    Update good news kinda….seams I have a scar infection … was at GP … and have be reassured so now ive been told to wear my dressing checking it daily and been given a weeks dose of antibiotics amazing what bra rub can do … motto of story don’t if there is irritation put a dressing back on to prevent damage to scar or scab area
