2 weeks post. How do I get feeling back in my nipples after breast implants?

October 12, 2018
Asked By:mshae in Dallas, TX

It’s onkt been about two weeks since my surgery but I’m getting concerned I’ll never have any feeling again. My left nipple is very sensitive and sore, full feeling. My right one is completely numb, like it doesn’t even feel like it a part of me. I hate it. I also have this sharp pain that feels like I’m ripping nerves when I stretch my right arm. It’s right at the crevice where my arm and torso meet right above my armpit. Is there anything I can do to regain feeling in my nipple?
