POD2 – is this normal?

Hi

Had my op on 20th and I’m so sore still. Feels like the ache after exercse x 100. I get up and it feels like the strapping is pulling so tightly on my boobs and I feel really bruised. I can hardly move my arms up – just my forearms, and my skin is slightly sensitive. I find walking around quite difficult too!

Most positions are uncomfortable too. Someone please tell me that this is normal!

Hi Harriet Its completely normal, not sure with the strapping as my surgeon didn’t use that method on me I just have to wear the breast band!
But I couldn’t walk around for days! I was walking like a hunchback and got pains in my boobs if I walked around even just to go the toilet. I promise it gets better I’m day 5 now and today is the first time I’ve managed to do more than I did but still taking it easy. I still find it hard to lift myself up out of bed aswell as it can really hurt xx

Ahh I just replied to ur comment on my op day story post – so relieved you’ve had the same thing I have!! xx
