    It’s kinda like a dull/sharp pain down the left side of my left boob, I found if I hold my boob or press on the sore bit the pain eases…is it maybe just a nerve??

    I have more bruising on my left side, do you think its maybe just that thats causing the pain? The pain can stay away for ages, but then comes back in waves…it’s not unbearable but its a little sore/uncomfortable

    Hey hon, I think that is fairly normal. I remember being told that each boob will heal differently so one may take longer to drop etc. I’ve found I have a few more twinges in my right, I think it’s the skin stretching, or maybe the nerves… My left is a lot more numb than my right too. We’re both recently post op so there is a lot of healing to do! If anything feels too odd though ask your nurse, that’s what they are there for. Xxxx

    yea I’m not really worried about it I just wanted to know if it was normal lol. I had to leave my friends house last night because of the pain in it :-/ I keep getting backpain now too :-/ think its coz I cant really walk without slouching, managed a bath this morning tho! yey! Didnt get my boobs wet but managed to wash and shave etc :P feel so much better after it.

    I told my nurse that my left was hurting more, the muscle mush more tender and can’t reach as easily and she said was that a smaller breast? Even though there wasn’t much difference it was slightly smaller, she said that was probably the reason

    I dont think its any smaller :-/ I think that my surgeon maybe tried to fit the 505cc implant in my left side but couldnt fit it in so took it out and put the 470cc in, so maybe its just been traumatised a bit more than my right?

    honestly honey its perfevtly normal. i remeber posting virtually the same thing it will ease. One piece of advice i was given was to make sure you use that side of your body, i was told my right was better becasue i’m right handed and use that side more. I did as she said and she was right it did help and it reduces swelling. Try not to slouch either, i know its automatic but it makes it worse and for longer. YOU WILL BE FINE. i WAS THE SAME FOR FIRST FEW WEEKS. BUT NOT EVERYDAY OR ALL DAY 5 WEEKS NOW AND ONLY OCASSIONAL PANG.
