Sports Bra Too Painful to Wear

In reality, a post-surgical garment after breast augmentation does not alter the final results in any way.  This is why some surgeons do not even have their patients wear anything afterwards.  The bra is not holding anything in, nor can it limit swelling or force the implants in any direction.  Essentially, your body is going to heal on its own whether you have the bra on or not.  I would not worry too much and perhaps just wear one size larger until you are mor comfortable and have less pain.  I hope this helps.

We use surgical/sports bras in our practice all the time.  Occasionally the dressing will rub and cause chafing.  Often women are swollen after surgery and then as the swelling gets better, the tightness of the bra goes away.  Sounds like the bra may be a bit tight and you may need a slightly larger one temporarily.  sometimes the edges dig in and need some gauze.  Good that you are following up with the doctors office.  Let them guide you through the process.  Back soreness is normal as well.  Things get better as time goes on, the first three days are usually the roughest.  

I agree that maybe a larger bra will help.  The back pain you are experiencing is very common after breast augmentation surgery (from sleeping on your back). Sometimes, back massage helps.  The first week is the most difficult, it gets better from there.
