Pain in one breast after lifting something heavy. Any suggestions?

Question

I am 4 weeks post BA, 275cc over the muscle. I moved something heavy at work 2 days ago and have pain in my left breast, from underneath running through my breast. Should I get this checked? I can also feel the implant, is this normal? Thank you.

If the breasts appear the same as they did before, that is a good sign.  However, it is always best to have this checked by the plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your question. This can be normal and secondary to the situation you described. If it persists or worsens i would recommend you contact your PS. Best of luck.

It for weeks there still swelling and therefore the potential for discomfort. If the onset of pain has been fairly dramatic I would suggest you call your surgeon's office. You probably don't have anything to worry about.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

If you just are a bit sore it is probably ok, but if you are concerned, it is always safest to speak to you surgeon. Best of luck.
