Thank you for your question. My first recommendation for you would be to be seen in person by a board certified plastic surgeon. Please clearly voice your problems that you have been experiencing as a side effect of your large breasts. A breast reduction surgery might be best for you.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
Dear Philomena,It really sounds like you are struggling with painful symptoms of macromastia (large breasts). You sound like an appropriate candidate for breast reduction surgery. Typically, breast reduction is performed for headaches, pain in the neck, shoulders, upper back, kyphosis (forward neck), bra strap grooving, and rashes attributable to the breasts. Anxiety is another important consideration. Generally several months of therapy, NSAIDs, and specialized bras are trialled; if the pain persists, your best option may be reduction surgery. You should seek the counsel of a plastic surgeon or primary care provider- whichever is appropriate in the UK healthcare structure, and proceed from there. I really hope this helps and that you seek the help you deserve.
