pressure on the chest

Hi girlies, had my opp on tuesday. I’m still strapped up, plus wearing my sport bra. I don’t feel pain, just lots of pressure on my chest. is it normal?????? xxxx

Hun, I had my op on tues. and I feel exactly the same. I’m sure we’re fine. Plus I’ve got one numb nipple ha xx

100% normal, it felt like a fat man was sitting on my chest for the first week lol but it passes don’t worry Hun, ooo we have the same name btw Lucia 😀 xx

🙂 thanx for reassurance girls xxxx

hey girls I had my op on 19th and feel the same!!! tight and numb!! xxx

Me to lol join the club

Snap!! Feels really heavy, also don’t think my sports bra is helping feels really tight so going to get some new ones tomorro xx

Same here but had the dreaded strapping off yesterday boobs still feel tight and the left one is very numb feels like I’m touching someone else’s boob lol. maybe give the sports bra a miss while wearing strapping might ease the pressure abit. I never wore a bra on top as the strapping was tight enough. Happy healing xx

I open my Macon bra every day for at least 1o mins air

Nearly 2 weeks post op and only have feeling in the sides and a little down the middle. Hope that’s normal!

I had my surgery tues and was told I could take the bandages off weds the next day and wear my sports bra, how come you guys have still got yours on have u been advised too? X

Chantelle did u have Dr Chantarasak? I had him on tuesday and was given the same instructions. I am wearing my Macom now, no pain swelling is going down but feeling numb around the sides having sharp pains and looking Veiney ewww lol my chest felt heavy with the bandages on.

It’s just a difference in surgeons Chantelle… Some let you remove it wheras others want you to leave it on and you gave it removed at your 7 day post op by the nurse x

Thanks Leanne thats good to know! And yes Kim I had dr chantarasak tues also 🙂 I had a macom aswell but it was soo tight I could hardly breath so I went to asda and got a few. £6 each and they are brill much better than the macom and they have a lil bit of padding in aswell so your nips don’t show through 😉 I’m doing ok so far just still very high on my chest swelling gone done a little but no numbness as yet x
