Shoulder and Arm Pain After Breast Aug Surgery?

July 16, 2012
Asked By:girlygirl11

I had breast implants 8 weeks ago. 4 weeks ago I began having a pinched nerve like pain from shoulder blade, across shoulder and down left arm to elbow. It will not go away and pain pills hardly do anything to relieve the pain especially at night when laying down puts pressure on area. Constant pain and muscle spasms. Is this normal for post breast aug and how long will it take to go away? I also have the pain under my arm which I know is typical but not sure about the shoulder to elbow?
