I am 4 weeks post op. I was just laying down with my daughter in her bed, and was attempting to lay on my side, with my arm bent behind my head. There were numerous popping sensations, along with pain along the bottom of my breast (by the incision).

Everything looks okay, but it feels different and I am mild having pain.
