12 days post BA, extremely worried about getting capsular contracture. More pain in one breast that the other. Feeling anxious!

Asked By:jaamie in South Acworth, NH

I had my BA 12 days ago, 345cc Subfacial. I assume Im probably best to wait for my post op appointment in a couple days. From day 6 I felt as though my right implant had become apart of me, minimal pain and softening/reduced swelling quicker than my left. My left is a fraction bigger, assuming it's swollen. It feels very similar in firmness as the other, internally in feels quite different. Almost harder and the nipple is more painful. I do have a little pain on the outer edge also. Anxious!
