I had a breast augmentation 3 weeks ago and my dominent side (right) is larger and lower than my left but no more painful. Should I be alarmed? -- Updated on Sep 11, 2009: This is my second question as I have a new concern. I am 3 weeks and a day post op feeling great after my BA. But I am unable to raise my left arm to any height, when I do under my left breast right down my rib cage to my left side it looks like tendons are being streached vertical lines pop out and it is painful like something is pulling. Anyone ever heard of this?

Great review?

It is hard to tell if it is just swelling, It is a little tight but again not painful, possible I guess just concerned.
