Sharp shooting burning pain under left breast when I move a certain way 2 years post-op

You need an examination to see where the pain is specifically and if it could be related to your breast surgery. Some scar tissue may have developed around a sensory nerve, or there may be another reason. Pain doctors are good at blocking painful nerves, and I would suggest seeing one of them.

More information and an examination are needed to determine the cause of the pain. Neuropathic pain can happen after breast surgery, and while it generally gets better as time goes on, sometimes medications are necessary to help the nerve calm down. If there is a postsurgical neuroma, these often require surgical intervention.

Dear sngp,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.
