After breast reduction there is no change in bra size/relief from neck & shoulder pain. Please tell me this is swelling? (Photo)

Asked By:ckbasset in Illinois, IL

I had large breasts 34DDD/E and severe neck and shoulder pain. I received a reduction on November 16th and I am still fitting into a 34/e bra 12 days post op. I see no change in clothing, bra size, or neck/shoulder pain other than a loft. Insurance covered this procedure and won't pay for something like this again. Could this just be severe swelling? 340 grams was taken out of the right side which is still bigger post op and 290 grams on the left.
