    Hi girls I’m 3 weeks post op tomorrow. At first I had no pain at all but now I’m feeling really sore on the sides and underneath, if I pull down on the skin under it’s so sore and when I touch it. The incisions r healing great, I’ve got nothing oozing, no redness and no evidence of anything going on, just this soreness and I’m worried. I called the nurse n she said it sounds fine. I just thought at 3 weeks I’d b back to normal after Reading some girls stories. Also they’re still hard and high up. Help.. Love jane x x

    Hi Jan,

    usually take up 2 6 weeks to recover properly some people recover quicker some a bit longer, but ul be ok. Just keep at it and think positive.

    I have found the same , just when you think you are on the mend somthing else starts to niggle.

    but it is the muscles still settling and i’m sure that they dont all settle at once together its like its a little sequence of event LOL.

    but i had what i thought was a little set back where all the stiffnes returned in the mornings for two or three days then ive felt great again.

    so dont worry , ITS ALL GOOD !!!!! XXXX

    Hey hun, I’m 9 weeks post op and still get the odd twinge. Like tink says, there’s lots of healing going on underneath that we can’t even see. If you are doing too much your body will tell you, it’s natures way of saying slow down and rest a bit, but it’s all normal. The healing process can take up to 6 months and the nerves can take a year to repair. I’m only just starting to get the feeling back in my nipples! x x

    hey. Im also 3 weeks 2mo! You have just said exactly how im feeling. I have had no pain at all. And what id call a really quick recovery. But now they my scars seem really sore, my nipples r killing me!!! But mine have gone really soft already but i think thats cos i had overs and only 300cc so quiet small. I just want my nipples 2 stop hurting! xX happy healing hun. Least its normal i guess. x
