Infections after breast surgery found to be costly

"Fitness is the only REAL preventive medicine." (tm)

Another good reason to stay out of the hospital.

"More than one in 20 patients undergoing breast surgery later developed infections at incision sites, according to a study released on Monday, a complication that was more common than thought."

You can bet that the complication rate of other procedures, such as bariatric surgery, and treatments, such as diet pills, are higher than previously thought, too.

Do yourself a favor and get fit.
