Asked By:Anonymous358334 in Flagstaff, AZ

I had my breast augmentation l(over the muscle),ever since the surgery my right breast has felt very strange, it feels tight,i can feel bubbles or water and it is quite painful .I visited my surgeon 6 months after my surgery and he said the capsular constructure is normal and nothing to worry about. But is been 3 years and the pain just get worse so I'm worried, I don't want to get another surgery unless is necessary,so I'm wondering if the pain is cause for concern
