February 23, 2015
Asked By:Mikimoon in Sydney, AU

happy with what my surgeon has done , although 3 days ago I started to feel a strong tearing pain which starts from my left nipple and runs down into my cleavage. It happens when I move, bend over or breathing in a deep breathe. Is this normal? my 2 week check up yesterday with the nurse and she said it's totally normal to feel different pains 2 weeks post op. There is no big difference in my breasts other then this pain which progressively started to get worse 3 days ago.
