Morning pain after breast augmentation.

staranaaa
I am at post op day 9. The first 4 days I slept sitting up. Now I've been sleeping on my back in bed, not elevated, as cleared by my surgeon. In the mornings when I wake up I have really bad pain in the breasts, it takes a while after sitting up for it to go away, and then it's fine until the next morning. I wonder how long it takes for this to stop?
