    Hi girls. I’m 7 weeks post op tomorrow, and for the last week or so I’ve been getting a sort of pulling/tightness under my armpit/down the side of my breast. It’s a really strange feeling, it’s not sore or painful, just a bit of a strange uncomfortable feeling. It kind of feels like my muscles are tight. Also on the same side, when I push my boobs together, I can feel the inplant moving inside like it’s moving out of place a little bit. My left one is fab and I get no problem at all with it, but my right is being a bit funny! I also have problems with bras not feeling like their sitting right under my right breast, but that might be because my scar isn’t in the crease, it’s a centimetre or so above it.

    I know it’s probably all nothing, but everyone else seems to be saying at this stage that they feel normal and like their own 🙁 my breasts look the same and have t changed at all in the past few weeks, so I’m hoping it’s just normal uncomfortableness?!

    Hi jo
    I’m 8 weeks post op this week and last week I had exactly what you described . Achy pulling feeling on outside of right breast. I knew my period was due and once it came it stopped . Although I still get that pain if im resting on that arm while sitting.
    Try not to worry. I’m sure we are gonna have minor twinges every now and then and everyone is different with recovery etc. If your really worried call your nurse. Xx
