How bad can a capsular contracture hurt?

November 30, 2013
Asked By:ShawnC81

I have a CC and I'm going to be getting it fixed in a couple months. The problem is I lift heavy weights and I'm an athlete so my career depends on it. 2 days ago I did a workout that really hurt & now that breast is in horrible pain. It doesn't hurt when I'm just sitting. The worst pain comes from when I touch the underside. It feels like the implant itself may have twisted around inside the pocket. I'm wondering if I can wait w/the pain. Is this a normal reaction to trauma from lifting?
