.2 months before my explant I had twinging and sharp pain in my left breast.I had an MRI,it was OK(10 y.o PIP). My doctor promised to remove whole capsule, but later he said he was unable to remove the whole capsule because I was bleeding hard. But I had a little caps.contacture.I still feel the shap pain in my left breast.Dr.said it's normal.2 months before surgery my back was pushed hard during massage and my left breast became sore for a while. But that sharp pain started 1 month after this.
