Answer: Pain between breasts Let me preface by saying you should consult your surgeon regarding any concerns you have, but it is not unusual to have pain in this area following breast augmentation. This is where the muscle fibers originate along the breast bone, and prolonged inflammation along the bone is normal. I like to have my patients take an antiinflammatory like Motrin or Advil as directed for 5 days straight whether or not they are in pain. Your surgeon will determine if this is a good idea for you and make sure there are no contraindications such as a history of kidney disease or stomach ulcers. In any event, it should get better with time.

Answer: Pain between the breasts after breast augmentation Most likely this pain is due to muscle stretching where the pectoral muscle inserts into your sternum (breast plate). Muscle relaxants and anti-inflammatory meds can help. You cannot drive a car after taking a muscle relaxant. It will eventually go away. I assume you are not lifting weights and stressing your pecs.
