Ongoing wound problems

It is now 11 weeks since my right masectomy and i am still having wound seepage
I did have the vacuum machine for over a week which helped but the woumd is still leaking and i am having it dressed every few days
Any one had similar experiences? I am still not driving and very restricted in what i can do

I didn’t have any issues with my wounds but I hope someone else on this wonderful forum can offer help and guidance.
