I had my Breast Augmentation surgery 3 weeks ago. Recently I am feeling unwell because of some allergy, cold and flu, menstrual and breast pain (all at the same time!) Can I take any medication to relieve the symptoms? or are there some medications that I shouldn't take yet? (like Ibuprofen and aspirin). When can I resume taking my multivitamins? Is there a supplement that could help me to heal faster? Thank you very much, Best regards, Martha Zambrano.
Answer: Breast Augmentation/Breast Implants/Anatomic Gummy Bear Implants/ Silicone Implants/Breast Implant Revision I appreciate your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients. Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon

Answer: Medication use after breast augmentation Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent breast augmentation.In my practice, most patients can resume normal medication use by the three week post-operative mark. This can include for breast augmentation patients use of NSAIDs, vitamins, etc... With that said, cases and situations do vary and I would recommend following up with your operating surgeon if there is any question regarding medication use at this time. I hope this helps and best of luck on your recovery!

Answer: Resuming medication after breast augmentation surgery I feel that it is safe for my patients to resume any medication they wish as early as the 5th day after breast augmentation surgery. It's always best to check with your surgeon about his or her protocol. Good luck and feel better.

Answer: Resuming Medication After Breast Augmentation Thank you very much for your question and congratulations on your recent breast augmentation. At three weeks post-op, most medications can be resumed. However, you should check with your operating surgeon to get his/her approval before starting or resuming any medications. He/she will best understand your recovery progression and your medical history.

Answer: After my Breast Augmentation: When can I take any medication as before? Thank you for sharing your question and I am sorry to hear of your symptoms. By three weeks after surgery you should be able to return to all of your previous medication use, but as your surgeon knows the full details of your medical history and breast augmentation, I would advise speaking to them to be sure. Hope this helps.
