Im a week away from 3 months post op breast augmentation and my right breast is still firm. From day one it has been like this. I seen my ps and he says it could be CC but for some reason I don't feel like it is. I asked if it could be the implant just hasn't fallen and he said no it couldn't be!! I feel the implant but not at the bottom, never have. When I lay on my side its soft like my left breast but once I stand it feels firm again. Does it take this long for your breasts to drop and/or could it be cc since day one? Oh also when I pull up on the top of my right breast it flops up and down which is nothing like my left breast that lays normal and feels real.

BA

Tomorrow I will be 6 weeks postop BA. Both breasts were doing fine until yesterday I noticed that my right breast has gotten very tight and hard on the top. Below my right breast still feels soft and I have no pain. I am concerned and is going in to see my PS. I am hoping I don't have Capsular Contracture. My left breast which was smaller than my right looks very good and feels fine now if only my right was the same. has anyone experienced this? should I be worried? Ive been massaging but not on the top (my PS said not too) so im wondering if that could have something to do with it. When I massage my right breast it gets very tender and it doesn't feel good.

Hi. No to be honest @melodywest I don't even like looking at them myself. I am very happy with my left but my right looks horrible!! I did go see my PS yesterday and he said he really couldn't feel anything but yes it was / is really tight and hard on the top but wanted me to wait for 3 months before going back to check. He also said it could be a CC and for me not to worry about it that it could be fixed. I am very sad and really wishing I would have never done this BA. Don't get me wrong my Doctor is an awesome Doctor but felt from the beginning that one side would be noticeably bigger than the other but not like it does now!! I don't want to have another surgery and it looks like that's what's going to HAVE to happen!! Sorry to be letting this all on you but I am really down about this whole thing!!

I can imagine how bummed you would be. Maybe it will get better over time it's still really early. Try to stay positive. My right breast looked horrible but it took like 3 months for it to look better.

Thank you!! I am hoping so. so weird two days ago it was soft (or seemed normal) and yesterday just got hard and tight. My doctor is saying he didn't feel anything but did acknowledge that it was tight and firm and to give it a few months. I think my greatest fear is it getting worse and then feeling pain. I can only hope for the best for now and try not to stress too much on it. (which I've been since) Thanks again for listening. :)

Woke up feeling super good today and thought it would be good to go out and walk some. After a couple of hours moving around I started feeling like my left breast was getting really tight and swelling!! Mind you I'm in no pain whatsoever but I'm wondering if walking and moving around caused this feeling? I am now at home relaxing elevated on my recliner hoping that this swelling and tightness feeling will go away some. Did I stay on my feet to long or is this normal? Should I be worried? ????
