While it may be totally "normal," or explainable that one breast may be more sore than the other this soon after surgery, there are some things that can cause this to happen that should be evaluated and treated more urgently. One of the most common and problematic of those things is bleeding around an implant, or a hematoma. Typically when this happens there are other associated findings such as significant enlargement of that breast or some bruising. While this is usually not a life-threatening problem, it can cause some issues later down the road if not properly managed early on. In some instances there is perhaps more glandular tissue in one breast than the other, and that can create more swelling and pain in that breast, and sometimes it just happens that way without any obvious explanation that we can identify. The important thing is that you report this to your surgeon and keep him or her in the loop so that you can be properly evaluated and observed over time. He or she will be able to tell if it is something that just bears watching and conservative management versus something that needs more immediate attention. Good luck.
