I understand. Who wants to hurt? The answer to your question takes another question. What type of revision are you contemplating?Just changing from one implant size to another does not hurt nearly as much as the original surgery. Major revision that would involve the muscle may hurt as much as the original. We need to know what you are having done and what you already had done to answer the question.Hopefully your surgery will be the "not nearly as bad" type of revision.
