Random shooting pain after breast augmentation on right breast 3 weeks post up (smooth, classic, 400cc). Advice?

Hi, sorry you are experiencing this during your recovery.  This type of pain is commonly an irritated or stretched nerve.  Luckily this improves with time as your body gets adjusted to the implants.  There are several ways to treat this.  Any board certified plastic that performs numerous breast augmentations will have encountered this type of recovery issue.  I would follow up with your plastic surgeon.  Good luck with your recovery.

dalou3a.   I appreciate your concern, however intermittent pain after this operation three weeks postop is not uncommon and usually respond quite well to anti-inflammatories like Motrin. Follow up with your plastic surgeon and review your options. Try to stay patient as this will resolve on its own. Good luck.
