In the ER:(

2 weeks post op, suspect seroma under one of my incisions. It's hard and building, more painful and warm might be infected since I have a mild fever even though the scar itself healed well. After talking to dr on call when to get it checked out. Prayers are appreciated please, I am still emotional and chicken when it comes to stuff like this.

Thanks all!
