Coping with Pain After a BA?

The symptoms you are describing are way out of the ordinary for a breast augmentation surgery. Without photos or measurement other than your weight it is difficult to comment on size of implants, but those do seem rather large based upon your weight, and smaller implants might be less uncomfortable. Most patients use an oral narcotic pain medication for a few days, and then switch to something like tylenol. Most feel pretty well after a few days, and many are back to work at 3-4... more

I use pain pumps with generous local anesthetics along with the general anesthesia. Post operatively my patients are on a pain medication schedule that keeps them very comfortable and allows them to recover uneventfully.

The usual comment is muscle tightness, not trouble breathing or like the chest is exploding. Also, your implants are not oversized so the pressure should be easy to handle. We use pain pumps for most of our patients along with muscle relaxants and most patients comment on how easy the healing process was.
