I had my augmentation 4 days ago. Under muscle through the crease. My right side is ok but my Left is much more painful. My left had a drain the right did not. During the day it's not as bad but my left arm feels tingly and numb. However at night I wake up screaming. My arm feels almost separate to my body and I have to vigorously rub my veins and get my boyfriend to lay on it to stop it hurting. It's also while sleeping that my left breast hurts my chest. I'm worried about nerve damage

Answer: Extreme pain and numbness in left arm following breast augmentation. Is it nerve damage? Thank you for your question. This type of pain is unusual following breast augmentation and may indicate pressure or stretching on one of the nerves going to your arm. Please see her plastic surgeon immediately for an examination and diagnosis. The fact that the arm is painful and not numb might indicate that the nerve is simply irritated and that you will recover. However you need to see your physician for appropriate management
