375l345rgummyunderthemuscle: 1 month po, my left boob is still high. I feel some tightness especially after getting up from sitting down and I could feel the implants like balls on my chest. When does that feeling go away? I’ve also had a terrible cough since the day of surgery and still coughing a month later. I was able to take some meds 2 weeks post op and the cough has lessened but not fully gone. Could a cough worsen things? Clot some blood and cause cc lol.I was only on pain meds for 2 days
