Breast augmentation 6 months ago. The past 3 weeks I've had a bad cough and begun to experience pain in my left breast. It is definitely muscular pain but now it's a chronic dull ache which hurts more with running up stairs, lying on side etc. I still have a slight cough which hurts a lot Prior to this cough I went for a back massage and found my breasts were in agony after lying on my tummy. Is this normal? Could the muscle still be repairing at this point post surgery?
