When do people typically start seeing results when taking Singulair for capsular contracture?

Cvalentin77Apr 4, 2023
I am currently on surgery #4 on my left breast for capsular contracture. It is happening again. I started taking singular when I realized it was happening and reached out to my Dr. For those who have has success taking it, when did they start seeing results? I am beyond frustrated and know my next step will be removal.
