I am 22 days post op and use warm compress to my breast, is this ok. It makes them feel better and when I'm cold they hurt more.
Answer: Warm compress following breast augmentation Thank you for your question. Warm compresses for pain relief at 3 weeks post procedure are acceptable. That being said, use caution with heat or cold on any areas that are numb. Best of luck.

Answer: Warm Compress Post BA Hello,Thank you for your question. As others have stated, warm should be fine but hot is risky due to compromised sensation in the breast skin. I recommend that you ask your plastic surgeon what they feel is safe for you.All the best

Answer: Warm compresses after breast augmentation Thanks much for reaching out. Warm compresses you should be fine to use as long as you make sure they are not too hot but they change the color of your skin. The worst thing you would want is a burn.

Answer: Is it ok to use warm compress after breast augmentation? You have to make sure the "hot" compress is not too hot to burn your skin and cause additional problems. I suggest you address these concerns with your plastic surgeon.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Warm Compresses Post Breast Augmentation Thank you for your question. Absolutely, as long as you have full sensation in the areas you are using the compresses. Excessive heat combined with decreased sensibility in the breast can result in burns, so caution is advised.
