I (26M) had my top surgery 5 weeks ago. All in all very happy with it and been feeling much better since. In the scheme of things, this isn't a huge deal.
I had pico dressings on for a week afterwards, then they got removed. Afterwards I had paper tape to go over the horizontal scars, just for a couple of weeks, and then these dressings to put over my nipples and replace every time I shower (every few days was the instruction... pretty gross but it was only for a few weeks so whatever).
I ran out of dressings today. My right nipple still had a scab on. It fell off after my shower and my nipple was underneath and had some white fluid on / had maybe partially deteriorated (pretty sure I lost part of my left nipple too, but whatever), but all in all still existed. Since I didn't have any dressings left I decided to put my post-surgical vest on without anything covering them. I take it off just now and, well... my right nipple has fused into my areola. There's a white circumference that shows where they'd been separated before, but all in all I guess my body has perceived them to be the same tissue and has stitched them together, essentially.
Obviously I'm speaking to my nurse about this tomorrow. Just trying to find informatoin about this. Has this happened to anyone here, or have you found any information about it?
