Answer: Shoulder pain post breast augmentation Thanks so much for your question. It is not uncommon to feel some aches and pains post surgery while your body adjusts to your implants. Not sleeping in your usual position can also cause some discomfort in your shoulders and back. Your physicians office is there to help and answer any questions/concerns you may have. All the best!
