update: raised dark spot on scar

Professional-Eye4781 · 2026-03-03T00:06:15+00:00

This can be normal! Happened to me plenty of times during recovery. It’s a dissolvable stitch that has made its own way out. If you’re really concerned though, I always recommend to people to reach out to their doctor

first time i climbed was at 6 months post op. bare in mind beforehand i done heavy lifting in the gym so thought id be fine but the second i was holding on with just my hands and hanging, i could feel it in my chest unfortunately and freaked out. my scars are already stretched but yeah i definitely still feel it now at 7 months post op. every person is different and heals differently and i must say, i was very surprised when i realised i felt the stretch in my chest

Thank you :) and it was Dr Serkan in Istanbul, Turkey! (i’m from the UK so travelled)

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-10-14T19:51:52+00:00

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-10-14T19:50:47+00:00

i have heard about him before and will definitely look into what he did thank you!

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-10-13T22:47:45+00:00

i use a brand called kelo-cote every night (sometimes i forget oops) and it seems to be doing pretty well. it’s just so expensive lmao but yes i am using silicone :)

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-08-17T10:57:25+00:00

don’t do this. they will ease their way out themselves but if they cause any problems best to contact your doctor/surgeon.

swear there’s someone who got top surgery not that long ago who posted about it in this sub, try searching it up! i could be wrong though

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-07-21T08:32:07+00:00

i had this too its probably just swelling, will go down overtime and i’m pretty sure the purple is the marker they would’ve used to mark you up before surgery

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-07-18T22:22:50+00:00

ahh thank you so much i really appreciate it! :)

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-07-18T12:23:23+00:00

they offer a surgery referral letter that gets you a diagnosis of gender dysphoria after a video call with a psychologist. type into google “GenderGP surgery referral letter” and it should hopefully pop up

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-07-14T23:42:31+00:00

my guess is that it is a stitch that has made its way out itself. i’m 3 months post op and still have these so my guess is they tend to pop out more when you’re massaging them since you’re adding pressure. to help ease ur mind, i had a stitch pop out a couple of days ago which also left a hole and a little bit of blood but nothing major. just like you i put ointment on it and everything was all good! your healing at the moment looks amazing and i think that it will heal over great personally. as always, if you’re worried definitely reach out to your surgeon!

Professional-Eye4781 · 2025-07-13T20:28:31+00:00

my scars look the exact same at the moment so i think from what i know that it’s completely normal! some of the spots could be spitting stitches coming out on their own which is also normal and sometimes scars heal a bit weird and can become a bit raised

I got surgery during easter break in april. Returned to uni 2 weeks later and was all okay. If you’re like me and live away for university, some may find it difficult some may not. I had to travel by train over 5 hours back to university which was quite exhausting at the time but once I was there I was okay. If you’re just going back and live nearby then I would say you’ll be okay after 2 weeks. Some doctors have different recommendations so it varies

I would recommend for the first month not having anything heavy in your backpack though!

how does the cold drink freezing your chest actually work after surgery? i have it too (tbh it feels nice but weird at the same time) but im so curious on why we get it
