I had a small "hole" right where my inverted T came together. I packed it with saline soaked gauze and it did go down in size. There was a small hematoma in that area and that's what caused the delayed healing. I had this area cleaned up in a revision and it looks great. Just keep an eye on it and watch for any S&S of infection like foul smelling drainage (all drainage has a weird odor but I mean really bad smell), greenish drainage, bright reddness, heat...etc. I also had some drainage from areas where the "fishing line" was poking out. The dissolving sutures looking like fishing line and sometimes that needs to be trimmed for the site can close over it. I hope you are doing better otherwise. Sue
