Is It Normal for Breast to Be a Little Hard Near the Side of the Incision Site?

    Hardness around incision sites may be normal and may be developing scar tissue, which will soften over time.  A physical exam can usually rule out significant fluid collection or fat necrosis.

Congratulations on having undergone the breast reduction procedure. What you are describing does not seem too concerning;  it is likely that the firmness you are feeling is related to scar tissue and/or swelling/inflammation around the surgical site or lipo him suctioned areas.

 I would suggest that you continue to follow-up with your plastic surgeon. More than likely, you'll be very pleased with the long-term outcome of the procedure performed.

 Best wishes

Scar formation starts to set in weeks after the procedure not before. This is a normal part of the healing process. These areas may stay hard for months before they begin to soften. Recovery from your breast reduction is a process and issues that you have asked about will take up to 6 months after surgery to resolve.

Without an exam, iti s difficult for me to comment on the lumps that you are feeling. You did the right thing by showing it to the doctor's staff.

What you describe sounds like normal post operative tissue edema and firmness around your incision sites. This would be a normal occurrence and will usually resolve over the next few months.

Of course without examining you it is not possible to determine with certainty that this is what is going on. I suggest that you follow up with your surgeon who can confirm this.
