question about healing after surgery

[Guest guest]

hey all,

i have a question. my explant surgery was 2 wks ago this past

thursday. dr. kolb told me at my follow up appt.on the 5th that if i

had any burning in my chest that i'd need to take an antibiotic as

that would indicate an infection. well i don't think i have any of

that but i've noticed that my incisons are still rather sore and do

burn and tingle a bit.i was thinking that the sports bras i've veen

wearing might be irritiating them since they are quite snug but

comfortable.my memory is so bad i can't remember if my incisions have

been this sore since surgery or if they were getting better then

seemed more sore the last couple of days. i want to say that they

have gotten more sore over the last couple of days. i've been using

the peroxide and ointment just like i'm supposed to. the incisions

don't look unusually red or otherwise any different than they have

been. they look like they're healing okay so maybe it's nothing but

they sure have gotten more uncomfortable the last few days.is this

normal? i had been a little ill with some kind of bug going around

and my joints have now gotten more achy again too. maybe stress is

making it seem worse. we just found out last week that my husband's

mother has been diagnosed with alzheimer's disease and we're both

close to her so it has left us rather sad.i sure don't want to have

to take antibiotics again.
