    Hi hun . Im day 3po now and can feel my bra getting tighter and tighter underneath my boobs which makes me feel sick because of the thought of pressure being on the cuts. Weird i know. Ive been taking co codamol every r hours religiously and use a bag or frozen peas in a tea towel which really helps when they feel extra sore. Maybe try this on your boob as the cold should help with swelling. Hang on in there. They will be worth it in the end! X

    If u have had unders and left handed this may explain extra tightness because it’s the side ur working the muscle most. It will calm down in a few days the first five are the worst. Try to ensure ur eating a high protein diet as this will help ur body repair and lessen the pain. I took supplements before and after my op too (zinc, vit b complex, magnesium and feroglobin) which really helped. I had unders and an uplift.

    Hi Hun. The tightness and not being able to move your arm properly is completely normal and it will get better each day. I had full range of arm motion by 12/13 days post op. The first couple of days is the worst by far.

    Eat as healthy as you can & have a high protein diet x

    Hi Hun, I felt the exact same as you 3/4day po, it does slowly get better, i struggled and still do with a burning on my left side and apparently that’s normal, I must of cried so many times those two days and said I regretted it just due to the pain however I’m 7days po today and cannot wait to get this strapping off tomorrow and see them ! As for your bra I just loosed mine for half an hour every now and again, it will get better just plenlty of rest day by day it improves, just try to keep on top of your painkillers and put ice packs on they work a treat xxx
