I'm 12 days post breast augmentation and having pain and tenderness in one breast.

Asked By:sarahsuew33 in Pasadena, CA

I think I pulled something bending over and reaching 4 days ago.. at first the pain was sharp but quickly diminished, but now is sore and seems to be harder/firmer tissue in that spot. The breast over all looks the same size as the other and with no visible bruising. Is it possible I may have broken a vessel and gotten a hematoma that I wouldn't see?
