I am 3 weeks post op from an under the muscle breast augmentation. 310 L / 330 R moderate profile. Inflammatory fold incision. The first 2 weeks were extremely painful. My chest muscles were spasming like crazy and sharp stabbing pains were frequent and consistent. The pain is better but the shape and height are still bothersome. The pec muscles feel so tight even massaging and pushing down is difficult. I still feel them spasm frequently. Any suggestions on how to get my muscles to let go?
