I am 3 months post plans both of my breast still feel tender especially the left. The right nipple are is still numb. I get sharp and throbbing pains on the left in the nipple area. They feel like I'm laying on a rock when I do try to lay on my stomach. I saw my surgeon last Wednesday and he took pictures and asked if I lay on my stomach and I told him no. And he said start laying on my stomach. I went home and did research and I think I might have CC. It is painful when I lay on my stomach and when I come off of my stomach. I also have a little ripple on the side and my breast look uneven. I'm not sure how I feel about the surgery. I send a email a couple of weeks ago about my concerns and didn't even receive a call back. Is laying on my stomach goin to help CC? If he thinks I might have it shouldn't he say something? Is it time to get a 2nd opinion. Is there still time to reverse it if I do? Or maybe I just just give it time?

Hi there, so sorry to hear about your discomfort. When in doubt I think it's always helpful to get a second opinion. I also think your questions regarding the possibility of cc would be better served in the "Ask a Doctor" section here. Look for the link at the top of this page. I hope you able to resolve your issues soon.

I just went through the same thing right after surgery. Little breast tissue I went over muscle and cc started. Just had revision. Got a proper surgical bra. Open capselectomy. Implant under muscle. Much better & soft 6 days post op. Taking Omega-3 800 mg per day. Plus I'll be doing the Aspen therapy at home with my own machine and gentle massage when instructed. You looked like I did right out of the gate. Doc & I taking different approach. Seek other PS opinions
