I'm 3 months post-op and my breasts look and feel fine, but the outer side of my right breast hurts when lying down. It is uncomfortable and painful when I'm sleeping and when getting up from lying down. They don't hurt at all during the day, but the nights are very uncomfortable. PS said is the muscle and told me to stop massaging but the pain persists. Is it normal that it hurts when I'm lying down? Will it dissapear? What should I do? I'am starting to worry. Thank you so much!!!
