I can't wear a bra at all or anything tight bc I feel so sore/tight I get out of breath from so much pressure still. Doc won't help he thinks I'm imagining it. PLS HELP what do
Answer: Implants You may need to see your medical doctor to make sure you do not have an undiagnosed medical condition unrelated to your surgery. However, if your implants are placed behind the muscle, you might consider going smaller or placing them on top of the muscle.

Answer: Trouble breathing Dear gianna42, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Post-op breast aug Hello, and thanks for your question. This is a rare side effect of a breast aug that may go away-it may just take time for your body to get used to the implants. In the meantime, there are tank tops with pads installed within the tank, and no underwire to give your chest room to breathe. One popular type of tank top is called "BALI DF0057" (it will show up on google) and seems to be very comfortable for women post-recovery. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. Best of luck to you!

Answer: Chest tightness, soreness, shortness of breath 6 months after breast augmentation Hi and welcome to our forum!This is not the normal course after breast augmentation. It appears that you cannot tolerate the presence of the implant.Administration of anti-inflammatory medication and a course of physical therapy may be of benefit. If it fails to moderate your discomfort, you may unfortunately ultimately require implant removal.Best wishes...
