Sore Nipples

Hey,

I’m 3 weeks post op and my nipples are sooooo sore? Is this normal?
I feel like I’ve recovered pretty well, I’m not in any pain anymore, just the odd ache here and there if I lift something heavy, but my nipples especially after a shower hurt so much to touch!
When will this start wearing off? X

I am the same I’m in so much pain with them is it normal when does it stop??? Xx

I have heard from a lot of girls this is normal week 2-6 for nipple pain/tenderness. Goes away after a few weeks, mine is easing now 🙂

I’ve got to say it’s started easing off now, will be 4 weeks post op on Wednesday! X

I’m so nervous about this as i already have quite sensitive/ tender nipples naturally and I’m so scared the surgery will make it worse! I was actually hoping I would be one of those that lost all sensation in their nipples lol, but it looks like soreness is much more common than losing sensitivity.

If anyone has any tips on how to reduce the soreness or ease the pain whilst it’s really bad to help me prepare for the worst, I’d be really grateful! xx

Don’t be nervous! It’s only temporary, for me it was only slightly painful when I showered or when I was cold!! X
