What could be the potential cause for pain under my right breast post breast reduction?

Question

After my breast reduction I'm having pain under my right breast sometimes it hurts to breath can it be a rib?

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

I'm sorry to hear about the problem you are experiencing after breast reduction surgery. There may be many potential causes for pain after breast reduction surgery;  some of these causes are potentially serious.  I would be especially concerned with discomfort associated with respiration. Let your plastic surgeon know about your symptoms; he/she will be her best resource when it comes to good advice. Best wishes.
