What to do for severe back aches after breast augmentation?

October 26, 2017
Asked By:FattyB in Atlanta, GA

I am in the worst pain ever. I had my breast augmentation 2 weeks ago. I was put on morphine and hydrocodone but it stopped working maybe 5 days ago. The area I'm having problems with is my back. My implants were placed under the muscle which I'm thinking tampered with the muscles in my back. Any advice? My nurse told me to use bengay and ibruprofen which isnt working, as I expected, bc morphine isn't even giving me relief. I'm having a fit. Please help!
