I am roughly 14 weeks post surgery. My left breast is still much higher and does not seem to be dropping, even with aggressive massaging techniques. I wear a band as often as I am able, around the left breast only. This was recommended from surgeon. The nurse through my surgeon's office continuously states that this is normal and to wait 3-6 months. She says it's the way I'm holding the phone. I am worried something is not right. Any other suggestions on what I can do to help left breast drop?
