I originally had breast augmentation in 2016- subpectoral. I was 37 y.o. 128 lbs, athletic body type. In 2018 I developed chronic upper back/neck pain. In 2020 I had breast implants removed. The pain persists. I have severe animation deformity with any arm movement and my pec region always feels tight. Could it be that pec muscle has adhered to chest wall causing all issues? Countless phys. therapists said tight pecs can certainly cause upper back/ neck pain. contemplating muscle reattachment.
Over two years ago I had a Capsulectomy done. I have had pain in both Breasts non stop for two years. Have been to pain management and had nerve blocks physical therapy, laser therapy but nothing takes the pain away. It is like a tight belt around my chest. What could cause this.
Aches moves in my upper extremities from my upper back neck shoulders and down into my chest. Chest feels tight and tender. I had implants placed 2 years ago and removed 1 year ago(bc became hard and uncomfortable to where I could not function normally). 4 mths ago I began to have pain while exercising.Began in shoulders and moved down into my arms.The pain now comes and goes from different areas.Feels like something is in my chest under my boobs. In my chest muscle.They have ran multiple tests
My implants have settled after two years and the shape is perfect. However, its hard for me to work out like before and I feel Ike theyre too big and I want them removed. I had mild tuberous breasts and my surgeon had to release the tightness on the lower poles of my breasts. Will it tighten again if they are removed? How do I avoid that? I just want normal round shaped breasts without implants.. please help.
I had capsular contracture with a 400cc implant. I just recently had a double mastectomy with implant removal due to breast cancer. With the expanders in place, and both filled with the same volume, the breast that had contracture still looks a good bit smaller and tighter. Would the capsule still be in the pocket after removal and a mastectomy?
12 weeks PO from under muscle implant removal, still experiencing pain and tightness. Still have my capsules, as PS has disagreed about capsule removal from the beginning. (I feel his opinion on my pain is biased because he does not believe in removing capsules.) I have had EMG and NCV testing at the Neurologist (upon PS request) that confirmed that there is no nerve damage or nerve involvement. Should I have a capsulectomy? If I were your patient what would the next steps be?
I have just been told that my dizzy symptoms and tightness in my neck/ throat are due to chemical toxicity from my silicone memory gel breast implants. I have been recommended I get a total capsulectomy, detox, and treat coinfections if there are any. My question is... Is there any chance that my symptoms will go away if I do not explant (only have had implants 5 months)? And if I do explant, will I get better (no longer feel dizzy)??
I was told to wear a zip front firm support job bra after explant. Granted, It's only been 24 hours and it's now officially bugging me! It is a good fitting bra with padding, but thinking how I can wear this 24x7 fir the next weeks-months? And can this flatten me out? What is the purpose of tight compression and when is enough enough?
