Day 2 post-op. 320cc polyurethane moderate profile under muscle. Extremely tight with restrictive movement (Photo)

May 3, 2017
Asked By:silksal in U.K.

Love my new breasts! Feels like a new me and well deserved after giving birth and breastfeeding my two children. But I'm feeling sore and extremely tight with restrictive movement. Any help when this will subside? And when will my boobs drop and settle? Can I massage them from now? I'm on day 2. My consultant will see me in 7 days time to remove dressing, shall I wait until then? Thank you ladies [RS bleep]
