ohsoinspired Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Hi everyoneSo im POD5 today and since day 1 ive had a sensation of fluid moving especially on my left side especially when I move upright from sitting back.. and today i feel some kind of crunching (?) when i move my arms??? I cant really describe it terribly well and i cant see a huge amount of asymmetry between them but im concerned the fluid i feel could be a seroma? Anyone had similar concerns and called their surgeon and just been told its normal?? Ill attach some photos of POD1 vs POD5.

Katewell Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 From what I've read I hear this is normal , they look normal ! Just keep eye on it unless you have bad pain aswell then consult with your surgeon , I never had fluid noises at all with any of my surgerys, but I did have crunching ribs , they look great ohsoinspired 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you know as they all say ahaha, i have been paying much more attn to my breasts than i did a week ago... so maybe im just overreacting ...

WhingingPom Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 They look great! If you had haematoma or seroma you would have additional signs such as pain or sudden increase in size or hardness. I have always had gurgling and felt fluid for about a week post op when moving arms - it's very normal. ohsoinspired 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
