3 years post op pain, tingling sensation to my left breast, what could this be?

Question

I’ve had my implants in since October 2018. I’ve been feeling pain, tingling sensation to my left breast and looks to be dropped and softer. Both nipples are swollen and itchy. What could this be?

Wayne I. Yamahata, MD · Answer

Your symptoms seem to warrant a follow up visit to your surgeon. He or she can provide better advice after a thorough in person evaluation.

Vishnu Rumalla, MD · Answer

Thanks for your inquiry but without an exam it is is hard to advise.  I would say the symptoms you are feeling are not common this far out and it is best to be evaluated by your surgeon, good luck.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

It could just be some scarring around your sensory nerves, but I would suggest getting a mammogram and being examined.
