What could this spontaneous localized burning after breast lift with implants be? (photos)

March 7, 2019
Asked By:srb73 in Houston, TX

46 years old. Had breast lift with 320cc smooth Mentor high profile implants above the muscle on 3/1/19. Recovery has been great, little to no pain. I’m early in recovery but I am so pleased already. My concern is that my left breast has an occasional localized dull burning sensation and feels warm to the touch, and skin appears to be more red. I do not have my first post op check until next week. No swelling evident, it’s not constant, just very concerned. I added a photo of the spot.
