2 weeks post op of Breast Augmentation, my areola area & nipple became super sensitive & kinda burns. Is this normal?

steeeefffy
I'm two weeks post op and love my boobs! I love the shape, I love the size! My doctor said that they were no longer swollen, however they did get a little smaller than the first week! I was wondering if they are still going to shrink and if so how much? I don't want them to :( Also, sometime after a week post op my areola area and nipples became super sensitive and kinda burn! Is this normal? 325cc saline filled to 350cc over the muscle.
