Is it typical that one breast/incision may be more sore than the other?

I had my BA last Thursday. Since the beginning of recovery and still continuing now, my right breast mostly on the underneath near the sutures is in discomfort but my left is not at all. Is that common? Do I need to maybe favor my left hand more for use to let the right side rest?
