I had seline implants behind muscle done 2 weeks ago. Yes,there is a normal swelling that goes with the surgery,however my concern is about the swelling on 1 side. The swelling starts from higher, actually is starts from the armpit area. I went back to the doctor and he said that I should wait 4 weeks to see if the swelling goes down. Then, wait 4 more months to see if it will even out. Of course if it does not, he will have to open it and do something. Is this normal or should I be worried?
