I had a Browpexy 12 days ago. I am still feeling constant, mild pain and occasional headaches, is this normal?

Question

The pain worsens when I wear prescription glasses. Is this normal?

Hello, yes this pain is normal and should go away with time. It is still very soon after your operation so just try your best to be patient! If these symptoms persist after a few more weeks I recommend talking about them to your surgeon and seeing if he or she could prescribe a painkiller. Good luck!

Discomfort after browpexy is very common. This can last longer than 12 days as your are very early in the healing process.  I would discuss this with your surgeon.
