Skin sensitivity, yikes!

I must say for about a week now, my skin on my breasts has been super sensitive, almost a chafed or raw feeling. The first time I felt it, I was sure I had some redness or rash going on, but I didn't - and it feels like that on the sides, not just near the incisions. Bizarre. My PS nurse said had to do with all the nerves healing or whatnot. Oh, and I've been down over 4lbs from my surgery weight the morning of! I'm wondering if that counts as closer to 5 1/2 lbs if I factor in the implants weight, ha!

A little over 2 weeks since surgery

I went for my check-up this past Wednesday and had noticed earlier in the week it looked like my incision was opening a little under my left breast. My PS said the top layer of skin was irritated and the dermis was showing a bit so now I'm on a prescription and have to shower and apply it twice a day. I'm hoping it works and closes back up, thankfully there is no infection. My bruises are slowly going away but I definitely still have swelling, especially in my right breast. Lots of little snappy pains at times when I stand up or lean over, especially what feels like under my areolas.

Yesterday my right breast was quite sore, but better today...

My PS, at my one-week post op, told me to begin pushing in my right breast for a count of 3, 5 times in the morning and then repeat the same at night in order to help stretch the pocket inward a bit for the implant to drop. Yesterday, my right breast was aching on and off yesterday, so much that I started googling symptoms of a hematoma. It is a lot better today so I'm thinking that's not the case, lol, but the right breast does appear more swollen than the left, although my left breast is more bruised. I went and bought more of the Target cami bras today, $12.99 and super comfortable!
