Air in Chest Cavity After Augmentation, Should I Be Concerned?

December 31, 2011
Asked By:rre927 in Magnolia, TX

I am 17 days post-op. I noticed it immediately after surgery but assumed it would be absorbed or something to that effect. Now I have begun to massage my breasts and realize it is still there. I can feel it and it makes a noise when it moves around.
