You may find sleeping in a recliner much more comfortable than trying to sleep in bed with pillows elevating your head and back as pillows can slip around. Also, getting in and out of a recliner may be easier than trying to get in and out of bed. Practice ahead of time. Some of my patients that do not have a recliner buy one at a garage sale or from Craig s List and then resell it after their recovery. Good luck!
After breast reduction ideally you do not want to lie on your breasts ( or sleeping on your stomach). If you want to sleep on a recliner that is probably ok.
I presume that you are planning on breast reduction surgery; this operation tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform. Many patients find that recliners work very well during the recovery after breast or abdominal surgery. Best wishes.
If your drains were removed 2 weeks ago and you are still draining, it might be a good idea to see your surgeon for evaluation.
Any lump in the breast needs to be investigated. The vast majority can easily be explained, but all need to be investigated to be sure it is not something serious.
Small amounts of weight loss are unlikely to significantly affect your post reduction breast shape. The health and physical benefits from your weight loss are more beneficial than any negative effects it may have on your breasts. All the best.
