September 3, 2016
Asked By:mililiv in Washington, DC

I'm 4 days post op from BA surgery. 400cc in left and 375cc in right. My right breast feels great no issues. My left breast I feel a lot of pain on the incision site.it travels down to my ribs sometimes if I'm up and about too much. Today I walked a lot and started feeling my muscles cramp on my shoulder and back so am taking it easy now but the pain on my incision site on my left breast is really uncomfortable. Is this normal?
