I had under muscle augmentation, flat to 350ccs I believe. Is it normal for me to still be needing pain medication and muscle relaxers at this point? I am still quite sore and have spasms and twitching. I also am unable to lift or do much of anything to physical without pain. I expected to be back to pretty much recovered by this point; am I just being impatient?

Answer: Normal to have pain 3 months after breast augmentation? The simple answer is...NO!If you are having pain that requires you to use narcotics and muscle relaxants this far out, then you really need to see your Plastic Surgeon to make sure that everything is okay. Capsular contracture usually takes a while to set in but it certainly could be causing your issues. An in-person consult is really what you need.I hope that helps and wish you the very best!-Gregory A Buford MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author
