Strapping!

Is this strapping killing anyone else?
I’m day 2 post op and it’s so tight!
My back is also in agony, I have a back rest, but I’m sure still struggling! X

Hey Emily, your not alone I struggled with the strapping too. Couldn’t straighten my back properly and kept getting awful back aches, couldnt take a deep breath either. It’s awful I know but before you know it it’ll be off and all worth it xxx

Yes @emily. I noticed my back was wet today and my mum checked and it has blistered and is weeping ! When they took my drains out the strapping was loose so she retaped me with the thin white paper tape and I think that’s what’s causing me the trouble. We have trimmed it to an inch and have also trimmed under the armpits and along the top of my boobs.. Just a few mm and I’ve had much more relief. It’s awful though ????

Yeah the top of them feels so tight! I can’t really tell if they’re hard as they’re strapped in so tight, but if I touch the top of them they feel pretty hard x

I am so desperate to take it off that I think I’m going to do it on my own. It’s day five for me now and i just can’t take any more, it’s making me so anxious, claustrophobic and itchy 🙁

i spoke to the nurse and she said they need to stay on. I have also trimmed at the top and sides slightly. I am getting sore sharp pains in the bottom of the right one, where i imagine the incision will be – so hard that you can’t check it while its all strapped up. has anyone’s bloating gone down yet? I have been drinking lemon water and peppermint tea, im day 5 now and i’ve also stopped taking the pain killers and moved on to paracetomol now in the hope that it would go down! Currently by stomach is bigger than my boobs lol.

Hey, just wondering is anyone else experiencing pain in their breasts 5 days PO?? I’m having severe aches that feel like the muscle is cramping or ripping it’s very painful and only started today I don’t know what it is or if it’s normal? Kinda worried x

The nurse wouldn’t let me take mine off either ugh only a few days left girls. Mine are on until Wednesday but over half way now. Mine are definitely achey but I honestly don’t know of its just the strapping.. I feel like that’s causing me more nuisance than actually having the implants and my skin is SO itchy!!
