Hello, I had an implant exchange with periareola lift and internal mesh. The left breast has hurt since the beginning and still does 3 months post. I can also feel a hard object at the bottom of left breast. The right one is fine. My surgeon says it might be where the mesh is "bunched up". Should I ask him to do a revision? Is this normal?
