So I am 2 days Post-Op from breast reduction surgery and am noticing my right breast is significantly larger than the other. I am concerned because the doctor ended up taking out more from my left side because he thought it was larger, now the right looks much larger. Is this normal? I am right handed, not sure if this makes a difference.
