is that normal to have swelling in calves and ankles when it's been over two weeks after breast augmentation???
Answer: Swelling In Calves & Ankles Following Breast Augmentation It is unusual to experience swelling so far away from the surgical area and should be a concern you check out right away with your surgeon. While swelling after surgery can sometimes we retention of fluids, and/or because we are not as active and mobile and before surgery, they are generally in the areas of the surgery itself. I agree with the other doctors here who have advised that you see your surgeon ASAP in case it is an indication of something more serious such as blood clot.

Answer: Calf swelling Thanks for your inquiry. I think you should call your surgeon to discuss ASAP. Most patients will not have calf swelling 2 weeks after surgery. Good luck.
