My Right Breast is Larger Than My Left and I Still Have a Lot of Pain? (photo)

My right breast is larger than my left and I still have a lot of pain- sometimes it's so bad I cannot lift my right arm. I recontacted my PS and he again stated my body would absord any remaining liquids. AS you can see in the photo I also developed what he called "heat blisters" on my right breast I am concerned about the amount of pain I am in and any other possible complications. Should I seek a second opinion from another San Diego PS or my primary care doctor?

I am not sure what your surgeon meant about absorbing any fluids. If this is in regard to swelling, probably... more
