Double bubble?

I had no sleep last night at all. Worried sick about something I noticed yesterday on my right breast down the bottom. I hadn't seen it before and i thoroughly check my breasts. I have been 100% fastidious with after care. I'm so scared I have formed a double bubble. I will be 5 weeks PO this Wednesday.

    Hi Jackattack.
    Thank you for posting your question. From the shadow shown on the photograph, I can understand why you may be concerned about the possibility of double bubble formation; however, because it is only 5 weeks after your surgery, I would give it a little more time to see if it persists. One of the common causes of double bubble deformity is excessive lowering of the native inframammary fold. I would suggest that you continue close follow up with your surgeon and let him be aware of any concerns that you may have. 
    All the very best.
