Sharp Pain in Breasts One Month After Breast Augmentation?

You are describing nerve pain as the sensory nerves regenerate after surgical dissection. This is common. You should certainly discuss it with your plastic surgeon and OTC anti-inflammatory meds may help.

Your descriptions is classic for nerve pain.  Many patients descibe it as a lightening shock pains or even vibratory sensations.  This is most likely due to stretching of the nerve during surgery or inflammation building up around the nerve as you increase your activity.  The pain should go away with time but you should discuss it with you PS.  I recommend taking an anti-inflammatory, such as ibuprofen, and applying warm compresses to the sensitive area.  I hope this helps and good luck.

The sharp pains that feel like electric shocks are usually due to nerve regeneration after stretching.  They will subside over time.  Desensitization exercises like massage help, and I occasionally prescribe medications that help calm the nerve impulses.  Talk to your surgeon, and I am sure he can help you if they become too much to handle!  good luck!

 

 

 

The sharp pain your describing sound normal. Usually after breast augmentation it takes month for the nerves to regenerate and sharp pain to your breast is what it feels like. It should subside with time. You can take anti-inflammatory to help with your discomfort. Make sure you follow up with your surgeon to assure yourself its nothing else.
