After 2 weeks I went to the hospital with a lot of pain in my right boob and I couldn't even move my shoulder. My boob got swollen in seconds. In the ultrasound says that I have a small hematoma in the muscle and little amount of blood. My surgeon recomend me to put ice and rest because the body will absorb the liquid.
