9'weeks post op BA and having intermittent breast pain.

Question

I'm 9 weeks post BA 350cc saline under muscle. Over the past few days when I move my implant it's been sore. It's moving around freely and my breast hasn't become any firmer. But it's bothering me. It also happens when I wake up in the morning and push on my breast but then when I sit up its slot better. Is this a CC? Or just going through the normal healing process?

Don W. Griffin, MD · Answer

Your pain issues are very normal for this time of your recovery. They should subside over the next month or two. Continue to follow up with your surgeon.

You should make an appointment with your plastic surgeon for an in person examination as the symptoms you are describing could indicate a number of things. More pictures would be helpful, but having your doctor examine you and prescribe further treatment is probably necessary. Good luck!

Jaime S. Schwartz, MD, FACS · Answer

I appreciate
your question.Since there has been a change in your post op course, please contact your surgeon so he/she can examine you and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan at this time.

The best way
to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a
board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.

Best of luck!

9 weeks is still in the early phases. Sometimes nerves can be stretched in the surgery. After 3 months things should be very close to normal. Make sure you discuss your concerns with your doctor.

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

Hello, 
Thank you for your question. It is difficult to
determine without an assessment. Should the pain persit, I'd recommend booking an appointment with your
Plastic Surgeon to discuss your concerns. 
All the best.
