barry dench
Had gyno surgery to remove glands and minor lipo 2 months ago.The areola area is still slightly tender to touch and when i reach to put my hands above my head it feels like something is pulling just below the lipo incision and its painful at this point.Is this normal 2 months post op?? I also have quiet a lot of scar tissue as its hard around the areola.
