5 days post op Breast Augmentation, my breasts feel slightly worse regarding pain. Is this normal?

acs129
I had breast aug with 400cc submuscular silicone round high profile in both breasts. Today waking up I would say my breasts feel slightly worse regarding pain. The pain includes a burning sensation and yet still numb. It is not unbearable pain but annoying. Just bruising near the incision on the underside of my breasts. Breasts are very sensitive on the outermost sides. Hard and sore to touch. Is this normal ? When can I expect these feelings to go away ?
