post op pain

I had my ba on sunday and so far I’m in so much pain! I had 340 under and ever since my have had aches in my back and chest. Burning sensations throughout my chest n sharp pains. I also feel that the pain is restricting my breathing and I can’t do even simple things like sit up in bed on my own. Has anyone else gone through this? Worse fing is I haven’t told work what I’ve done and have no idea how 2 go back to work in this much pain. I’m beginning to wonder if all this pain is worth it!!

Hi Hun, I know EXACTLY what you mean..I was in a lot of pain until about day 5, then it starts to subside. I couldnt sit up on my own either, bf had to push me up lol I felt totally helpless and couldnt sleep cos of the pain either. I also had unders and unfortunately they can be much more painful than overs.

Now, 6 months on, its worth EVERY minute chick, believe me. You will get through it, take it day by day and take those painkillers if you need them, I did until day 8. Try not to tense up too much (cos of the pain), I found it made my shoulders/back ache more. Keep your chin up x

I had my op yesterday and I’m feeling the same pain, sunburnt boobs, can’t move off my bed without it hurting my scars, breathing troubles I’m weezing like anything & really gross I’m sweating loads and shaking keep waking up drenched it’s minging! I had 525 unders but you just got to think only a week or two with this pain then back to normal and will have lush boobs by the end of it xx
