What can I do about a sore back and ribs after breast surgery?

ririk
After breast surgery I was experiencing really bad back & rib pain within 5 minutes of standing up or sitting up. I am now 4 weeks post op and am still experiencing extensive back pain when I stand or sit up straight for more than 15 minutes.I have asked my surgeon a few backs and he said it's normal but I believe otherwise. My surgery was done different country so it's not possible for me to go back for a check up. Any advise?
