Bruising and swelling

Hi girls i had my ba 8 days ago and my right breast is extremely bruised and is also feeling quite hard. I had unders so i know they take a long time to adjust but just wondering how long about the swelling takes go go down and also when the bruises start to fade? Thanks x

i didnt get any bruising only some swelling but i was taking arnica tablets before my op, and ive used arnica cream every day its made to reduce swelling and bruising, have you had any arnica tablets ?

Hi Jodie my swelling took a good week and a half to go down and my left is still quite firm compared to my right, don’t worry you’ll get there I’ve been a bit worried but at the end of the day it’s been quite a bit of trauma to our boobs it’s gonna take a while 🙂 x

@jlmxo Im 9days post op and had unders too. I still have a lot of bruising swelling is going down but my stomach isn’t don’t know if it’s because I’m not being active as I usually am but time will tell if I’m just getting plain fat lol . Mine are quite still firm too but deffo not as hard as they were. I still can’t lift my arms fully up snf get the odd twitchy pains in them. I’m due back at work Monday and my job is hands on which I’m abit worried about x

I am 11 days post op and mine still feel like cannon balls hun, I also still have a little bruising around my incisions. I took arnica before and after my op so it’s not as bad as I imagined it to be.

Perhaps you could try some Arnica cream as that’s supposed to work wonders!

I am also quite swollen still in my cleavage, i think it just takes time, we’ve been seriously poked and prodded lol.

@danielle15 my stomach has only just calmed down from the bloat!! I was looking 4 months pregnant and my stomach was sticking out more than my boobs! But I got up this morning and it’s just disappeared! I was worried as most girls said it went within a couple of days, but alas, 11 days post op later and it’s gone and I look normal again lol!

Thank you all!
I forgot to mention i had an uplift aswel so maybe why thats why im a bit more bruised aswel.. Just want this swelling to go down so i can see the final size!
I have been taken arnica tabs but will try the cream to see if thats any better xx

@traceyface hi hun mines the same today when I woke up it looked a little flatter but stiol don’t feel or look like my stomach. These Easter eggs arnt helping much thou ;). Your right in what you say though we have had a big deal happen to our bodies and can honestly say I wasn’t expecting the recovery to be and lengthily or a big deal as it has been x
