Nipples Still Puffy After Gynecomastia Surgery?

August 23, 2012
Asked By:jayjaylegacy

I had surgery three months ago the nipple reduced in size but the problem is 1 side of my nipple before the surgery was bigger than the other. So after the surgery the right nipple is still bigger than the left nipple. The nipple still hurts like it did before the surgery. The nipple tends to get hard on some areas and when I press my chest flat it seems to feel soft and really hollow.
