I had a breast augmentation 10 days ago and still cannot raise my right arm straight over my head. Is this normal? My left has had full range of movement for a couple days. If it's helpful I was a A cup to a D and the right breast had some asymetry. Also is it normal for one to drop faster than the other?

Answer: Range of Motion after Breast Augmentation Surgery Your range of motion should return soon after having the breast implants placed. Usually after breast augmentation surgery you should have full range of motion evn before you leave the surgery center, though after getting through the first couple of days of mild soreness you should be back to normal. I would see your plastic surgeon to discuss your problems as this may be an indication of some increased inflamation, swelling, traction or even hematoma. I hope this helps Dr. Trussler

Answer: Arm range of motion after breast augmentation Although it is best to discuss this with your surgeon, in general, it may take several weeks before you are able to have full range of motion of your arms.
