Hi. My skin has been very sensitive. At about the two week mark I began having discomfort that felt like a very bad sunburn across the top and sides of my breasts...it was even difficult to wear clothes for any length of time. I was told that this is not abnormal and that the nerve endings (which had been stretched) were in the process of healing. I found that doing a light circular massage on the uncomfortable areas as well as alternating back and forth between ice (in a pillow case) and heat every five to ten minutes helped to desensitize my skin. I also took a B complex supplement (promotes nerve healing) and St. Johns Wort (helps with nerve pain) which I believe really helped speed the process along. I felt much better in a few days and though I have some of this sensitivity and discomfort on and off and am still wearing only smoother fabrics, I have noticed it tends to preceded a numb area waking up. Though quite uncomfortable at times I have discovered this sensitivity is a positive sign of healing. Better for everything to come back to life sooner than later. I am currently at 6 weeks post op and still take 2 Aleve if I get too uncomfortable. Hope this helps.
