Hi,

3 days post surgery, my right hand side is more swollen/bruised then my left. Is this normal?

Also it appears my left nipple has a crease in it . Will this go away ?

Thank you

You appear to have a hematoma (a collection of blood under the skin).  You should see your surgeon ASAP for possible treatment.

I agree with Dr. Jacobs. If you have a hematoma it doesn't look too bad but you need to deal with it. Call your surgeon.
