I'm 5'1 42yo 117lb was 32B had 375cc silicone mod profile put in last Sept. I was always healthy, workout 5 d/wk. Since my surgery I'm miserable. Upper pecs are still super tight, sore ribs, tight rhomboids. Went to doc, got CT, bloodwork all is ok, no caps contr. I massage/stretch everyday. 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
