Incision pain one month post op?

Question

9/4/15 I had my BA 420cc saline under the muscle. Its almost been a month and lately I've been feeling a dull pain in the incision of my right breast.. They look good, but I don't know if this is normal.. I've been wearing a wireless sports bra for some time now and even now that's been irritating me recently.. Ugh, help!

I appreciate your question.

Since there has been a change in your post op course, please contact your Surgeon so he/she can examine you and recommend appropriate treatment plan at this time

The best way to assess and give
true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified
plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.

best of luck!

Pain at one's incison can be caused by  many different things.  This may be related to any numbness that is improving with time. Best to see your surgeon to be evaluated.

Hi,

Thanks for posting your question. I am happy to try and help you. It is
important to remember that a board certified plastic surgeon will be your best
resource when it comes to an accurate assessment of your situation, and
concerns.

Having said that, pain around the incision about a month out is probably a Mondors Disease band, you should go see your surgeon if you are concerned.

Best wishes,

Dr. Michael J. Brown

Thank you for your question.  I would recommend being seen by your plastic surgeon to ruleout any inflammation, infection, or suture reaction.    Also, depending on how you scar, this may be normal healing.   All the best.
