Possible Infection?
Hey Guys,
As you all know I had my last round of plastics on August 17th. Well just a brief update when I had my modified LBL and inner thigh lift I had two holes that opened up on my backside. No odors, no fevers, and went to the doctor he did a debridement on one of them and we started backing with saline solution. Everything is fine there the holes are healing up nicely.
Now to the current situation well thursday I went to redo the tape on my arm incisions he did the implants under the muscle and in the arm pit. Well I know that you can have seeping from your incisions for up to four or more weeks depending on how your body heals. Okay did the left side everything okay I have so white skin under the left breast that I put some neosporin on it and put a bandange over it. Then got to the right side. from the elbow down a little seeping but okay but i have white skin underneath the right breast as well so I did the same thing. Then I started to pull the tap under my arm pit and it was completely drenched. So I pulled the tape and there is about a 6 inch opening that has the same green color the odor smelled like fritos
. I just broke down in tears because I was here just with my twin sister who is extremely squeamish. I really needed my mom but she is having to help with sitting and taking care of my cancer grandma. So my sister helped as best she could. I soaked a large saline gauze sponge and with my sister's helped we taped the area.
I called my mom and she had to once again sit with my grandmother and my dad called my surgeon the next morning before they opened and I was finally a sleep and comfortable. So he called in two antibotics one was amoacillin and the other was cipro. I am feeling a little better but still have a temp of 100.3 the lowest it has been is 98.9 so no normal temp.
I will be showering tomorrow with my moms help so she can see these areas. I see my primary doctor tuesday. I don't know what she will want to do. I may have to have Iron infusions so I can go back to work on time. And she will probably send me to see my surgeon the same day. I hope that they just don't admit me.
Any help would be great. I would love to hear all of your opinions.
Thanks,
Jasmine
