Asked By:laralsanders in Aledo, TX

500cc right and 540 left saline under the muscle implants. Today at my 2 wk dr said I have capsular contracture in my right breast and ordered me to aggressively massage it 8 times a day. I've had much more pain from day 1 in my right breast. I'm worried it may be my muscles attempting to heal and all of this massaging will hurt the healing. No fluid or infection detected. No swelling. Just much tighter on the right breast. From what I've read, it seems at 2 weeks it's not capsular?
