    Hi girls, I had my op on sat. I had 400cc uhp unders. The 1st 4 days were fine but since yesterday my left boob is a lot more painful and tight! It feels like something is being pushed up in my armpit causing my arm to go numb(almost like a dead arm) I sometimes get pain in my back that side and my neck too. My nurse said there’s no abnormalities looking at them but she’s gunna speak to my surgeon. Just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar?? Xx

    Hiya, I’ve been getting the same thing in my right arm/boob. I’ve also got the strapping on, have to have this on for a week but it seems to be getting really tight across my chest xx

    It’s horrible isn’t it! I changed my sports bra to a bigger 1 and it has seemed to relieve the pain a bit but it’s just the aching and my armpit and arm that’s so annoying! Sometimes I get short of breath! Have u contacted ur nurse? Maybe they might tell u to cut the strapping a bit?? I’ve seen girls on here before that have had to do that with strapping. Are u taking any meds? Xx

    I was thinking that my sports bra was too tight, I’ll get a slightly bigger one tomorrow then maybe. Yeah I have also been getting short of breath but think that’s because the strapping is so tight. I’ll call the nurse tomorrow for some advice, think I may be allegic to it as it is soooo itchy! And yeah taking the antibiotics and co-dydramol for pain relief xx

    Yeah I’d defo get a bigger sports bra. It has helped a bit. I’ve also put Ice on it and that has helped too ? Xx
