I just got my breast augmentation it will be 3 weeks on Thursday but I have 2 kids and my youngest is 2 he weights 33 pounds I have to pick him up sometimes when I take my oldest to school and this morning when I picked him up it my incision started hurt and know it hurts to the touch and that's my left breast and now on my right I get sharp pains on my nipple and around my incision I don't know if that can be normal or not.
Answer: Breast Incision Pain Some discomfort around your incisions is not unusual, especially this early after surgery. You may be a little bit too active and this can worsen the discomfort. I encourage my patients to minimize lifting and avoiding any strenuous activities for approximately 3-4 weeks. If you must lift, do so very slowly and carefully. Your discomfort should continue to improve with time. Your plastic surgeon is your best resource.

Answer: Is it normal to have pain in your breast augmentation incision? The symptoms you describe could all be normal early healing. Listening to your body is a good guideline for activity. Your body might be telling you that you are not quite ready for this level of activity. My patients are allowed to pick up their toddlers to transfer to a car seat, high chair or crib as early as the third day after surgery but are more comfortable carrying them for longer periods of time after 2 weeks. When concerned, though, it's always a good idea to check in with your surgeon. I hope this information is helpful and reassuring. For more information on this and similar topics, I recommend a plastic surgery Q&A book like "The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths."

Answer: #BREAST AUGMENTATION PAIN Most breast aug patients get some type of painful sensations at 2-4 weeks, particular in the nipple area as the nerves return to normal. And the pain you're having under your breast at the incision is most likely due to the necessity of taking care of your children. We often put deep sutures under the breast in order to prevent implant "fallout" in thinner patients. These stitches can become painful with early exercise. Best to consult with your surgeon as he/she would have direct knowledge of the cause of your discomfort.
