2008 Sub muscular aug. After surgery-Screaming of pain. Eight years of suffering because I've always wanted breast- how would I know the difference between a heart attack and this.
Answer: Very atypical. As my colleagues have suggested, you are best evaluated in person by an experienced board certified or board eligible plastic surgeon. If you are as symptomatic as you suggest, a revision surgery by conversion to an "above the muscle" implant position might allow you to achieve a functionally improved outcome that remains aesthetically pleasing to you. Best of luck to you.

Answer: 8 years still muscle spasms after breast augmentation? I stretch, cough, sneeze, laugh & get a muscle spasm? It's very painful. Thank you for your question. I recommend you seeing your original PS if you are still in the area where you had it done. It is possible you can have capsular contracture , however, if not, he or she may send you for a mammogram and go from there.
