So approximately 10 months ago I had a breast abscess and had to get it surgically removed. They had to make an incision near my nipple and then drain the abscess. After it was done the healing process was long and annoying and it left some scarring π ...recently I realized my breast is feeling tender and swelled abit ...after googling it I came to the conclusion that it's a reoccurrence of the abscess, it is said to happen especially with heavy smokers ...yup I'm a heavy smoker ππ ...hopefully my reoccurrence can be removed with just the help of antibiotics and I don't have to go through surgery again because I'm afraid another surgery will leave my breast scarred and hideous ππ ...as of today and I know it will be hard but my journey on quitting smoking begins now. Sigh.
