    Yes it’s normal unfortunately and most find day 3/4 the worst.
    Ice or frozen peas on you boobs ( not heat) and heat hot water bottle on your back. And someone if pos to massage your arms x

    Great thanks for reply, I don’t have strapping on just sports bra and covers on scars, do u think if I lightly massage my Boobs that might help?

    Its totally normal to feel really stiff, may get worse before it gets better.

    I feel the same Katy this is my second day post op. I was In tears last night as it was so painful. I’ve got strapping onto but I can feel it’s all swollen and bruised I hope it gets better soon

    Don’t massage your boobs unless you’ve been told to, it can cause a lot of problems and slow the healing hun! And I didn’t feel better til day 4/5 i thought the pain was never going to end and it suddenly lifted after day 4/5 it got loads better! Don’t worry ladies it won’t last forever! Yep the morning stiffness lasts for a while too unfortunately, even now I ache abit when I wake up and I’m 3 1/2 weeks post op xxxx
