    So I’m 2 and a half week post op and having trouble with my left breast. When I lean forward or lye on my right hand side so that the left boob falls over to the right, it feels really uncomfortable! It feels like something is squeezing my boob really tight like on the inside and it feels like it’s really hard like it can’t move. It’s hard to explain the feeling! Please tell me this is normal?! Also, my ribs still feel a bit bruised and swollen under that breast. Any advice would help. Thanks girls xxx

    Yeah it hurts to lay down! So still sleeping upright. It just doesn’t feel right like even when I move my arm across my body so it pushes on the side of my boob, it feels really weird. I know they heel at different rates etc I’m just wondering if this is a normal part of the heeling process xx

    I think i know what you mean! I rang the nurse about this on Thursday. I think it feels like its contracting and it goes really tight. I was worried that something was going wrong and I’d probably over done it. The nurse said its your muscles sorting them selves out and because of the trauma of the op they are gong into spasms. It should calm down its part of the healing process xxx
