Pain in left breast

Hi ladies,
I’m currently 13 days post op but the last couple days I’ve been having pain under my left breast. It hurts a lot more when I’m wearing my breast band and standing up, that I have to take it off. My left has dropped quicker than my right but it’s a pushing down feeling on the incision, and it also doesn’t feel right when I take my sports bra off. The right breast is fine. Has anyone else had this before? And is it normal?x

Hi Nicky, its totally normal to have different pains and sensations in each boob, I was told to treat them as two different operations, sisters instead of twins. I had lots of different sensations and pains and as im a natural worrier I just had to keep reminding myself that my body was healing and repairing its self surgery.
Im 5 weeks now and its only in the last week that my boobs have felt “normal” and like they are part of my body especially when I take my bra off. Before then it was such a bizarre feeling. I put some of that down to parts of my boob still being numb.
As always though if you are really worried give your PC or Nurse a quick call xx
