Pain six months after surgery: slight discomfort in both breasts, has now become all out pain.

January 14, 2018
Asked By:mel7878 in Australia, AU

It’s been six months since my augmentation and what was at first slight discomfort in both breasts, has now become all out pain. The pain is located just below each breast, not far from the scars I have from the surgery. Also at each side, towards my armpits. The pain is a throbbing pain and slowly increasing. I was lying on my chest recently for acupuncture for about 30 minutes but can’t imagine that would cause this? Waiting for an ultrasound.
