Breasts Feel Swollen, Painful, and Hot After Augmentation

There are numerous possible explanations for this some of which will require surgery, and others which will not. Seek evaluation by your original surgeon or another plastic surgeon.   Online advice for this issue is not advisable.
 

Hi there-
Without knowing more about the situation, and without an exam, it's difficult to say what might be going on. In any case, however, it sounds like you should pay a visit to your surgeon for an evaluation as soon as possible- one of the things that might be going on is an infection of the implant, which is something that would need to be dealt with right away if it is the cause of your problems.
Only your surgeon would be able to tell, so call them asap.
Good luck.

Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear about your discomfort. You will need to be examined by a board-certified plastic surgeon. I recommend immediate follow up with the surgeon who performed your augmentation. Best of luck to you.

Hello,
Swelling and heat after breast augmentation lead me to thinking you could have an infection going. At 4 years, it is uncommon, but possible. I would head to your surgeon for an evaluation ASAP.

Without the benefit of seeing you for an examination I would recommend that you see your plastic surgeon or a board-certified plastic surgeon close by for evaluation. If you have an infection around your implants it will require prompt treatment. Best of luck,
Dr Edwards
