Is it normal to still feel extremely uncomfortable 5 days post bilateral breast lift, augmentation and liposuction?

ellenjean78
I had surgery Tuesday (it's now Sunday) and I am still really uncomfortable. My breasts feel extremely bruised, tight, achy and almost like the skin is going to tear. I also have a liposuction incision on my right hip that gives me the worst burning feeling every time I remove my compression garment or move it in the slightest way. Is this normal?
