I'm 9 days post breast lift and fell in the shower after fainting. Have I done any damage?

Question

after 9days of breast lifting I fainted today in the shower & don't remember how I fell & where I hit but all I can say is that i fell little on my right side. I hit the right side of my forehead somewhere & got a deep cut & had to go to hospital to stitch it (You could even see the bone) Since the fall was very hard & im sure my breast must have hit hard also I'm concern about the result of surgery. I had no bleeding from my breast & no pain.

Sorry to hear about you fall and injuries. I am glad you have no breast pain or apparent injury to the breasts. However, you should contact your surgeon and they will probably want to check in person. Good luck.

Hello
dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well… 
I have to say that you are still early on healing process, it is too soon to
determine how your results are going to be, per now, they look very nice and
beautiful, you can have one bigger than the other, feel swollen and also have
bruises and open wounds, it is normal and that can happen Hello dear, thanks for your question
and provided information as well..

Sorry to hear about your accident. It was a good idea to go to the hospital to get checked out.  If you are concerned about your breasts, you should see your surgeon.

The only way to know if there was any trauma or damage to your surgery is to have an appointment with your surgeon so that they can examine you. Call them to discuss this without delay.
