There's no pain (just a feeling that the muscle on that side, on the left in the photo) is tighter than on the right and not being as flexible on that side. I pulled a muscle on that side, but there is no bruising (it sort of feels like the muscle in my armpit is always slightly tense). My breasts were very symmetrical prior to surgery.
