Why am I bruised only on the right breast but not the left? ( Photos)

February 20, 2018
Asked By:Lola_816

I am 4 Days post op. I had my post op appointment yesterday. My PS said there are no signs of hematoma. The bruise on my right breast was not as bad as it is today. Is this normal? There is no pain at at all just normal soreness and nerve pain that comes and goes at both incision sites. I had not taken any ibuprofen until yesterday evening, could that have been what caused the bruising to appear more?
