A member asked:
What poss causes my rt breast to have 3 reoccurrences of red, fevered, hard, sore, swollen breast aft bilateral mastectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time dependent: If these are happening soon after the surgery, it may have something to do with the body absorbing sutures. If the surgery was a while ago, then it may be areas of abscess, usually from oil glands that cannot drain. It is something that most surgeons would want to see, especially when it is happening.
