Lower Back Pain After Breast Augmentation, Will this Go Away?

Low back pain can be related to positioning during surgery, or sleeping pattern and postion as well. At this point you can sleep flat or on your side to relieve the stress, and can begin mobility exercise and stretching. Don't forget anti inflammatory medication if you need it as well.

Unfortunately all sorts of bodily aches and pains can go along with breast augmentation surgery especially if the implants were placed under the muscle.  That changes the dynamics of the stretch placed on your pectoralis muscle.  Plus, due to the pain of the surgery, you have probably been using your arms, back, and abdominals differently perhaps without even knowing it.  This should all go away with time as your body adjusts and you become more comfortable.  Please consult with your plastic surgeon about this.  Sometimes a medication such as a muscle relaxer can aid with the muscle tension and pain on a short term basis.  All of my patients receive low dose valium to help with muscle spasms.  But, you cannot drive under the influence of these types of medications.  If the pain continues to persist, then you might consider directed massage and low impact physical therapy.  Once your surgeon stops your activity restrictions, you can start some low back and abdominal strengthening exercises as well to help with any imbalance in your core muscles.
