Answer: Breast Augmentation Recovery Dee I appreciate your concern, however it sounds like just what you described, a pulled muscle. You certainly should see your plastic surgeon on Tuesday, but in the meantime Tylenol or Advil may provide some relief. Confirm my advice with your plastic surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: What to do if I pulled a muscle 3 months post op? Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your discomfort. Best treatment would be to limit any upper arm activities that reproduce or worsen the pain, while taking antiinflammatories to help limit discomfort and swelling. Hope this helps.
