i still have the dressings on (altough there coming undone)

ive only looked at them a couple of times, im squeemish and the thought of the scars etc made me feel ill!
when i was laid on the couch having dressings done when i looked down the way to describe is like a line almost looks like a man boob sort of shape attached to my boob?? oh i dont no, it was there when i first looked then 2 days later didnt seem to be as bad i thought maybe coulda been the dressing pressure?? then i went back friday and it was there again??xx

I'm not sure what it is that you are seeing Hun.I can tell you that I had severe swelling.To the point that my breasts were red and lumpy in some areas.The swelling would come and go and it would be in different areas at different times.And it itched as well.It could be swelling.Please keep us updated and let us know if you find anything else out.

Don't worry loll, you're VERY early post-op and when scrutinising our new boobs we find lots of odd lumps n bump and our breasts can appear very odd!

Over time as your clinic nurse and surgeon has suggested they start to settle down and gain the normal appearance we all crave from our new boobs, I had all kinds of probs sweetie, one being an invert on my left breast, it went from my cleavage area in to the breast and was reall odd to look at, but my surgeon was right to tell me to give things time and he was so right, everything settled over time.

Listen to your surgeon hun, that breast may have suffered a little more trauma than the other during the op, so need a little more time than the other breast to heal, it will catch up though.

And welcome to BJSF, I'm sure you'll feel right at home here. xx

thanks for your replys...
almost 3 weeks now they look different evry day implants must be settling, little worried (AGAIN LOL)
AS I WAS DABBING (CLEANING) the wounds when i changed dressings yesterday there was a slight blood spot maybe a bit gunky .. is this normal ?
dunno if its where the stitch may have been taken out to early (2 weeks after) or whether a bit of dried scab came off and caught it ??
almost pass out every time i change the dressings xxxxx
