    Hi there after my ba i had a bad swollen left boob was quite big bigger etc..

    anyway after a few days it got worse so i rang nurse they said nothing to worry about then it went bigger so they called me in and still said early days after another coup days saw surgeon as was really worrying me my left had settled so nicely this right 1 a nightmare not to mention the pains and that i couldnt lift left arm up etc..anyway wen surgeon looked he said i had a lil hematoma that was caused wen implant went in this is a burst blood vessel which sounds bad but he said would go on its own as blood would dissolve bk into the body could be coup mnths…4 weeks i had this i really didnt think it was gonna go away it kept going hard painful really struggled then outta blue it went!!! im now nearly 6 weeks and there perfect no swelling have dropt the same etc..hang on in there unless anything really bad happens..if it gets really massive then call xx

    Hi amanda, sorry to here you have not been great. I feel like I went slightly backward. I was healing with no pain and now I am getting pain more in my right boob. My right one is dropping quicker than my left. I am not worried though as know that the healing process takes a while. I think I do have boob greed though ha! I don’t think mine look very big and keep thinking omg I hope they don’t go down. I would ring your nurse and put your mind at rest. That is what they are there for and you have paid for the aftercare, so make sure you use it x x
