My breasts are still swollen and tender and warm to the touch. They hurt and feel like fire.
My breast lift was Monday and I was released on Thursday.
My PS switched my antibiotic from Ceferal to Augmentin on Friday and yesterday I had a low fever of 37.6 .
My PS also told meto take Vit A to aid in healing.
Any words of help or encouragement?

I'm sorry you're having a tough time. I hope you feel better soon. I had absolutely no problems with my breasts after my breast lift. My stitches were not rermoved.

I had no stitches that needed to be removed for any of my surgeries. All stitches were internal and exterior were glued shut. I'd say keep on the antibiotics as instructed and follow up w/ the Dr. Hopefully they will do the trick and keep everything under control. I believe after both my surgeries that my skin felt very warm. I just figured it was my body healing that cause the warmness as I didn't have a fever and am normally always cold but was on the warm side while healing right after surgery.
