15 days since my BA. 450ccs under the muscle. Recovery is being painful. Implants are still sitting quite high, so my surgeon suggested wearing a compression band for the first two weeks all day long and night. The problem is that when I wear it, the inner upper part of both of my breasts feels discomfort and pain. It goes away when I lean back or lay down to sleep and when I stand up the pain comes back. Is this pain normal? Why? Should I keep wearing this device? Can I take ibuprofen? Thanks!

Answer: Breast augmentation early post op, some advices: Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.In my practice, after performing a breast augmentation I recommend to my patients to limit the movement of the arms for two weeks. After that, you can move your arms taking care and always with common sense. In this regard, it's not advisable to carry heavy weights to prevent the implant out of position, and allow the formation of the physiological capsule around the implant, also to avoid pain and breast swelling. Also I suggest to take antiinflamatory pills. Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Upper pole band Follow up with you surgeon and have them evaluate the band you are wearing. If they think it is still necessary, have them check it to be sure it is being the band is being worn properly and not too tight. Wearing it on top of a thin tee shirt can also make it more comfortable.
