Answer: Pain after male breast reduction It is not uncommon to still have post op pain at 2 1/2 weeks. Pain in the rib area is pretty common and may feel like deep bruising (which is kind of is) or may hurt worse when you take a deep breath. I allow my patients to start taking non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs at one week. Medicines like advil, ibuprofen, naprosyn work very well for musculoskeletal pain. The ribs and the muscles around the ribs can get a little beat up with liposuction and it can take a while to heal. Hang in there.
