Is a cough after breast augmentation related to the surgery?

Question

Hi everyone! So have had my Breast augmention 19 days ago. I got 425 HP unders. I have been having a cough since day 2 after having my BA done. Is this something that is common? Any concerns?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Having a cough for 19 days after breast augmentation is not common.  Recommend that you schedule an in-office appointment with your PCP or PS to determine the source of your cough.

Benjamin Mandel, MD · Answer

Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, it is impossible to give an accurate diagnosis without performing a formal history and physical examination. I recommend that you meet with both your surgeon and your primary care provider to discuss your concerns. Best of luck!

Stephen T. Greenberg, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.  Without physical examination this is a difficult question to answer.  I would recommend following up with your surgeon to be examined.  Best of luck to you.

Dear lulisha,I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.Daniel Barrett, MD
