Pain from breast tacked to rib for bottomed-out breast, will this improve?

Asked By:sngp in Southampton, New York

Please help! Several months ago I had a procedure done to fix a bottoming out breast. My ps tacked my left breast to my rib. My ribs have been so sore. Sometimes my range of motion affected. I sometime can see and feel a pull under the skin. This is messing with my mental state. Will this improve? I often like and pull at the area to see if the pain is there and it is which I assume is making it worse. My PS says that what he did shouldn’t be causing this but it can be a coincidence
