Hiya so I’m just over 4 weeks post op and my boobs still feel tender and got that “sunburn” feeling. Anyone else like this? Thought they’d be more normal by now xx
Hey Hun I’m a week behind you mine are the same 🙁 please someone cheer us up and tell us it gets better! My nipples are pealing and my ribs still feel extremely bruised too 🙁 but on the up side I can almost push them completely together now!!! They just don’t really feel as soft as I would like as yet! Have you still got the bruised feeling Liz? And have yours softened much? I was think of putting some after sun cream on my nipples!! xx
I’m 24days po, I still have the sunburn feeling but only if I scratch the skin?! Not like you get sunburn which is aggravated by clothes too? The peeling was definitely helped by moisturising! Very carefully!
Do you guys have much numbness still too? My right side has always been fine but still no change with my left, all inside ‘edge’ and bottom of my boob is completely numb!?
Yeah the feeling is when I touch them or when im in the shower the water hurts them if it hits them lol.My ribs feel ok i only had thin strips on tbe incisions and the skin by ribs hurt for a week or so after. They defo seem to have gone softer over the last week and I can push them together more. I’m sure one seems slightly bigger but I dunno if its because they need to drop/ fluff because they looked the same at the start. I’ve been sleeping on my side abit so was worried this was why they were still tender etc xx
Hey Hun, mine has gotten much better since I stopped wearing the macom tbh I’m quite well behaved no matter how itchy I do not scratch! Mine are numb from the underside but the top is fine my nipples are a bit sore! its my left boob that is taking so much longer to heal than my right and you can still clearly see that I had problems with the incision on that one too :-/ I really can’t wait to get measured in 3 weeks now just hope that these minor problems will have sorted themselves out! I’m the same Liz with regards to one looking bigger and I started to sleep more on my side too I’ve been gradually laying flatter and flatter and I woke up on my side through the night was a bit sore for doing it but no damage done I’m sure! xx
I am just over 4 weeks po and felt like this especially with my right breast but just in past few days they feel completely normal and part of me. I was stressing the same as you. Sure they’ll feel fine soon 🙂 xx
Been getting shooting pains every now and then today. I haven’t worn my macom for abit just other sports ones but I’ve put it on to sleep I’m tonight and see if that helps coz they’re more achey at night xx
