Answer: Should I still have pain after arm lift? Yes, it is normal to still have pain two weeks post-op. The compression jacket should make your recovery more comfortable. Reach out to your doctor if you have any concerns.

Answer: Pain two weeks after arm lift Congratulations on having taken the step toward rejuvenation. I believe the best option is to discuss this with your surgeon. In my practice it is not uncommon for patients to experience more discomfort in the arms than the abdomen. The only way to tell for sure that this is a normal post operative course is an in person physical exam and history. Your surgeon will be able to confirm this quickly.Good luck.

Answer: Pain after arm lift Thank you for your question. You are still recovering from the arm lift and you will find that the discomfort and swelling will continue to go down with every week that passes. Be careful not to stress the arms too much with activity and visit your plastic surgeon regularly during the post-op period.

Answer: Should I still have pain after arm lift? Sorry to hear about your pain. It is not unusual that you are still having pain but I would be curious to try to pin point the cause of the pain. My guess in that you still have quite a bit of swelling and your venous return has been altered and therefore making the swelling last longer than other areas that you have surgery. I tell patients that the arm is like a cylinder and there is only one way for the swelling to dissipate and sometimes this process takes time in some patients. Have your surgeon take a look at this issue and see what he or she says. Good luckDr VasishtSouth Shore Plastic Surgery

Answer: Should I still have pain after arm lift? I'm sorry to hear about the ongoing discomfort you are experiencing; there is no way if this is "normal" or whether it is a symptom of a complication you are experiencing; therefore, best to follow up with your plastic surgeon, earlier than already scheduled if necessary, for an accurate assessment, advice, and/or meaningful reassurance. Best wishes for an otherwise uneventful recovery and an outcome that you will be very pleased with long-term.
