Wondering how others are/have felt one month past reduction. My incisions look great, but still having some pain. Very tender nipples. Going back to work (nurse) in 6 days.

Felt more pain this morning. I think that means I did too much yesterday. Really tried to take it easy today. Incisions were burning at base of breast. No drainage today. Had tiniest amount last night after shower. Kids will be home soon, so going to muster up some energy :)

Feeling good. Pain is improving. Taking less of the narcotic (down to am and pm) then taking Tylenol when needed. I might shower today but the surgeon told me to wait as long as I could. The only thing that truly bothers me is the nipple "zingers". They are uncomfortable and unpredictable. But bearable. Will post pics later today.

So happy for you that your pain is going down. I have heard the "zinging" will stop soon.
I have a friend who is about 4'11 too and she wants the surgery. She said she know longer wants to be called the "Little girl with the Big chest". Were you called that before as well??!

Congratulations I had my surgery 11/30 two days before you. I too suffered terribly for years 5'7" 34H. Still in my bra and bandages honestly it's kind of my safety blanket (for me anyway). I did well yesterday and today not so (?) continued good recovery just please take it easy even if you feel up to doing things..rest. Best of luck to you!

I think it is important to really take it easy. They say that it gets easier but I think it is ok to have bad days. Anesthesia wearing off, sutures, "zingers"... Good luck to you too! This site is amazing for support so if you ever have to check in with me please do, and I will do the same.

I had mine on 11/4/15 and yes if you even feel better rest get as much as you can... Congratulations on the surgery
