Is it normal to still be in pain 1week post Breast Augmentation?

LouBell90
I had my BA 1 week ago today and I'm still experiencing pain where the stitches are and drains went in. I also feel very tight across my chest to the point I feel I have to crouch my chest to feel comfortable standing up. I was a 32a and had 310cc implants over the muscle, I'm having my stitches out this coming Monday (10 days after BA) and I'm worried I may have not healed properly yet? Is this normal?
