I am not taking any pain relievers except the occasional arnica homeopathic, Advil, and even tried diuretics (pamabrom). My breasts always feel so firm, maybe swelling. I have over the muscle cohesive gel implants and started massage 1 week ago.
Answer: Posted bloating Bloating may be related to painkillers. If you are still taking those, try to switch to something without codeine to avoid bloating and constipation. You may also still be retaining water.

Answer: Is it normal to experience abdominal bloating 3 weeks post breast augmentation? Early during the first 10 days after breast augmentation when taking narcotic pain medications abdominal bloating and even constipation can occur. 4 x 3 weeks I would expect it to be improved. Please visit to her plastic surgeon for advice. If postoperative antibiotics were used the normal intestinal bacterial flora may be compromised. If this is the case probiotics may be helpful.

Answer: Abdominal bloating 3 weeks post breast augmentation Hello! I'm sorry you are having these issues. It is more than likely that your medications are causing you to bloat. Your body sometimes goes through abnormal changes after surgery and this can be solved with a healthy diet full of fiber and by taking probiotics daily. Eat a lot of greens, fruits, and veggies. Are you drinking alcohol or taking any other kind of drugs? You must stick to a healthy diet and avoid anything that could cause acidity in your stomach. Consult with your doctor to see why this is happening. It is normal to feel bloated and have gastric indigestion or constipation for the first week or two after surgery but this should subside after a while. However, everyone is different. You might need to just give it some more time.I hope that helps!Dr. James Fernau, M.D.
