Asked By:Kellykels14 in Miami, FL

My breast augmentation was 23 days ago. I got 325 cc silicone breast implants under the muscle incision was on the areola. My recovery has been amazing with no pain until this morning I woke up with my left breast in pain. It feels like needles are poking me around the areola. When I move my left arm suddenly I feel slight pain and also while I walk. Is this normal 3 weeks post op? No bruising, or swelling or any symptoms ?
