kim it sounds like brusing to me. mine were very yellow and blue. i wouldnt be touching the incision a lot until it heals. you dont want to get an infection. if you are concerned call your ps and see if he thinks this is normal.

Kim,

Have you gotten with your doctor on this one? I think the yellowing is normal--I had that, but I also had all the other colors of the rainbow with it, like blue, purple, red and orange. I am not sure about a blistering look either. You're are just better off having this checked out to make sure an infection isn't brewing.

Hopefully either you have by now, or it has settled down...Please let me know...so sorry for the delay in getting back..

Patty

Subject: one week appearance-PATTY please respond

It has been one week since my surgery and my left breast looks like there is a blister just under the incision. It is not a blister, but it has the appearance of one...white in the middle and then red around it. My right breast incision looks ok but there is a huge yellowing around it...i think it may be just bruising...but its a little concerning..does this sound normal to you? Patty or anyone else with knowledge on this please respond. ~kim
