I got my breast augmentation 2 weeks ago (325 cc ) and I got the incisions through the armpit. Everything has been healing great except I still can't completely lift my arms up, I get a sharp pain in my armpit that stretches to my elbow and almost feels like it's one connected muscle that's stuck there and I can feel it and see it in my armpit. Is this normal for awhile or does it go away eventually?
