Nipple pain 10 months after surgery - will it ever go away?

Hi and welcome to our forum!
Altered nipple sensitivity is not unusual following breast augmentation. As small microscopic nerves are divided during the course of dissection, a change is almost inevitable. However, if there is pain, it suggests the presence of a neuroma, which is a reaction of a nerve to being severed. The unsatisfied nerve endings may roll into a ball, resulting in an exquisitely sensitive spot.
Desensitization is often achieved with various therapy modalities. If this fails to improve the condition, secondary surgery to remove the neuroma may be indicated.

You may continue to have pain with these larger implants. If you go back down in size, the pain might improve. Acupuncture may also help with pain.

It is not unusual to have nerve pain or nipple pain post augmentation. It is unusual for it to continue for 10 months. At this point, I would examine you to see if the pain is reproducible by tapping on any area. If so, lite steroid injections will reduce the pain.
If not, many times you may try a 14 day course of : Neurontin or Lyrica. These meds can sometimes reset the nerves and stop the issues. You may feel a bit loopy while on them.
Best wishes.
