Asked By:350ccBA

Im almost 17 weeks po. Around 12 weeks post op my left breast dropped and softened alot. I then noticed the right was still high, firm and looks smaller when it's 25cc bigger. I went to my ps this week an he said there's a slight contracture and I should lie directly on my breast on a soft surface for 10-20mins daily 2x a day and massage it down/outward. He said its rare that he needs to do revision for scar tissue and I should be fine. Should I take accolate? I've been taking 800iu vitamin e.
