Pins and needles sensation, 3 months post BA?

June 16, 2017
Asked By:mindofabull in El Dorado Hills, CA

I'm now 3 months post op and still have pins & needles sensations on my left breast, below the nipple so mainly around the incision line. I had 335cc HP, rounds and they were placed under the muscle. Could this be the nerves re generating? I would have thought it would have passed by now however I am no professional! It doesn't bother me too much but sometimes it feels numb & tingles when I touch, just as pins & needles would. Opinions appreciated :-)
