I have gone from a small B cup to having 500 cc implants. I am having to take Valium just to perform the exercises to form the pockets.
Answer: Muscle Spasms Resolve In 3-4 Weeks Following Surgery It’s not unusual for patients to have muscle spasm following breast augmentation, especially when large implants are placed beneath the pectoralis muscles. In most cases, spasm has resolved in three to four weeks following surgery. In the short term muscle relaxants, stretching and massage can provide relief and shorten the duration of muscle spasm.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Muscle Spasms after Breast Augmentation It is quite common to have muscle spasms after having breast augmentation under the muscle. The pectoralis muscle is cut along the breast fold and a breast implant is then placed under the muscle. The muscle is therefore stretched, contracts and has spasms for several weeks after breast augmentation. Stretching exercises where you would lift your arms over your head help to reduce spasms. Massaging the muscle also helps. Some surgeons prescribe muscle relaxers or Valium to help with muscle pain. It is normal to have spasms for 3-4 weeks after breast augmentation.

Answer: Spasms are normal after sub muscular augmentation The muscle spasms usually break in the first two weeks or so. After that, it is typical for the spasms to be intermittent for a month.

Answer: Muscle Spasm After Breast Augmentation Thanks for the fantastic question - Muscle spasm after sub-pectoral breast augmentation can be caused by the stretch of the pect. muscle when the implant is placed beneath it. However blood and manipulation can also cause muscle spasm. The larger the implant the more likely the spasm. Typically the spasm resolves after about 1 - 2 weeks as the muscle irritation decreases. In our San Francisco area practice we have worked extensively on a regimen that reduces spasm which includes medications for the first few days as well as specific exercises for patients more prone to spasm. I hope this helps.
