SCARED! One boob is almost twice the size..

maressa · 11-10-2009, 05:10 PM

I had my breast augmentation on November 5....I was a 34 AAA and I got 440cc.....I prior one boob a little bigger than the other, the bigger one is the one that would grow huge when I breastfed..

I told the nurses in the hospital and they said it will settle down and not to worry, but today it is still really sore and looks a bit red. Tomorrow is a holiday so i won't be able to call my PS.

My Post op is on friday, and I live 3 hours away.

What is going on with my boob. I would LOVE for them to be the size of my big boob, but have a feeling that won't happen.

Anyways, help!!!

Being that your breast augmentation was less than a week ago, its probably just swelling.

Remember, two boobies is like two different surgeries. They will heal, drop, fluff and change at different rates. You cannot panic or be scared of anything you see just yet. You have a lot of healing ahead of you, and most girls see changes up to one year anyways.

Just relax, its probably just swelling. I pulled a pectoral muscle and my leftie blew up like a balloon at 5 weeks post, it went back down - and they are almost perfect even again. I have more healing to do since I pulled my muscle though.

When do you go back in for a post-op?

How are you feeling today? Any changes?

When I read your post (now remember, I am nowhere NEAR being a subject matter expert here), I automatically thought "hematoma". My PS warned me about it and swelling was a key indicator (abnormal swelling, especially only in one breast).

I hope you are doing okay.

I hope everything turned out to be okay~ My ps told me to call immediately if one breast was significantly larger than the other. Best wishes!

Hope you are doing better today. I would certainly call your ps immediately. Not to be an alarmist, because it may be nothing, but a significant size difference & the breast being warm is reason for a phone consult at the very least. Just don't want to take a chance. Better to be safe then allow a condition to go untreated for a couple of days. Best wishes

That happened to me and it was hematoma. They had to drain it out via another surgery. My shoulder kept hurting and my left boob was bigger than my right. Hopefully you get it all worked out
