Trapped nerve feeling in left breast - what could this be? (photos)

Question

I noticed last year on the underside of my breast where the scar is it isn’t a straight line and looks like it’s bulging out. The last few months I’ve had a feeling of like a trapped nerve. It’s made me unable to take full deep breathes and when I try take a deep breath lying down I can feel a pinching inside my left breast. When I push my breast upwards and in a bit it allows me to take a full breath. What could be going on here please? I’ve had them done almost 4y and had a baby 15m ago!

Dear BellaB24,
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.

Good afternoon,
I think you have a little lateral displacement which is causing the weird feeling- it's almost diagnostic when you tell me it is relieved when you lift up your breast- that is a hallmark of the condition. I repair this with the Original Internal bra, my strong permanent internal suturing technique.

Hi and welcome to our forum!
Thank you for your submission. The cause of your pain cannot be determined by a photograph alone. A complete in-person examination is required as the cause is obscure. 
You should consider reevaluation by your plastic surgeon.
Best wishes...
