Scar Tissue

I'm 37 now, I had breast reduction done almost 3 years ago for chronic neck and back pain. I was a 34DD & went down to a 34C.

I have been having pretty severe pain around some of the incison sites which feels like scar tissue build up. Is there anything I can do or have done? I am no longer in the area where I had the surgery done so I can't speak to the doctor.

Great review?

The surgery and after care was very good, he keep me fairly medicated for the pain for about 6 weeks. I did develop a collapse lung from not taking enough deep breaths the first week but he got me an atb right a way. Other then the pain I have now from the scar tissue he was good.
