I am two weeks post breast augmentation- surgery went well and took minimal meds but I am having trouble to take a full deep breath- and feel lightheaded- i feel like every 5th breath i need to take an extra deep breath to try and compensate.... is this just due to the extra weight on my chest?

Answer: Trouble breathing after augmentation Thank you for your question. It's possible that the swelling and pressure of the implants might have an effect, but what your are describing is uncommon. More of a concern would be possible blood clots after surgery that have migrated to your lungs. This can be extremely serious, so I would suggest you contact your surgeon or family doctor ASAP.

Answer: No that is unusual after a breast argumentation. It may be something that your mind has to adjust to, but your surgeon should be made aware as it could also be something much more medically severe and should be evaluated.
