Is it normal to still feel sharp pain on side of breast 8 months after surgery?

NanaMom87
My first surgery was October 2017, got adjustable saline implants. My right breast implant had to be removed in Late November of 2017 due to infection that cause me to become very sick. After almost 4 months without my right implant i had surgery again in late March of 2018 to put new implant in. 8 months late. I still have sharp pain coming from the underboob area and side breast traveling to the breast itself (right breast only). Sometimes i have to make sure to readjust bra/sports bra due to pain.
