I had breast reduction surgery 1 week ago. My only complain had to do with the discomfort of the drains, with the right one being more uncomfortable than the left. I couldn't wait for them to be removed. Well, I had my one week follow up with the surgeon's nurse. I took a percocet prior to going. When the nurse removed the right drain, it felt like a knife was sliding out of my breast. No external sign of infection. Any ideas why it would hurt that bad? Pain was so bad I almost fainted.
