Hello, after surgery for granulomatous mastitis, proper postoperative care is essential. Keep the surgical site clean by washing it regularly to prevent infection. Wear appropriate, comfortable clothing—opt for soft, non-restrictive bras—and avoid pressure on the area. In the early recovery phase, avoid frequent touching of the surgical site with your hands, as this may increase the risk of infection or even wound dehiscence. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
