Hi I’m 8 weeks breast augmentation post op (255cc moderate silicone under muscle) and about a week ago I started feeling some soreness in the lower part of my right breast. The soreness is not severe and not always present. I also feel it more towards the end of the day. Is this normal at this point of recovery? Or could this be a start of an issue that needs to be assessed? I have a message out to my surgeons office but wanted to get other opinions as well. Thank you!
