pain in right armpit and breast :S

kmh123 · 11-17-2009, 05:52 AM

so, i had surgery on thursday and am feeling ok in myself, but i have just started to get a shooting pain that goes from my armpit right through to the middle of my right breast. its pretty much constant, but feels worse when i move and stuff. i know soreness is to be expected...my breasts in general are a little sore, but no cause for concern. just a bit worried by this pain?

anyone had similar? i feel like maybe i have been favouring my right side when picking stuff up or pulling myself up, do you think this could be it? slightly worried. thanks guys x

Congrats on your breast augmentation! I read in the material from my PS that shooting pain was normal due to the nerves regenerating and healing. But just to be sure, I would give your PS's office a call and describe it to them. They are really the experts and it's good to be sure

Get better soon.

I am 4 weeks po and still get shooting pains and I am glad cause I know it means my nerves are healing and I will regain more feeling as it goes along. hth and happy healing!

oh brilliant, actually the side where the pain is, the actual skin is numb so it must be those nerves healing. have u had any numbness? its soooo weird!!! like, such a strange sensation lol. luckily my nipples arent numb or anything lol. thanks ladies x

Yep, I have numbness mostly in one breast and thats the one I get the pains in as well. I have most all my feeling in my right and half the feeling in my left. Both nipples have sensation, just not quite the same as before. A bit over sensitive. Kinda burning sensation.

yeah its strange. right breast is a lot harder than the left one now, maybe even more swollen, so i am still quite concerned

Definitely call the platic surgeon. Describe everything in detail, and I'm sure he'll be able to tell you everything is normal. I'm learning something new everyday since my breast augmentation 11/13/09. Keep us posted, and good luck.

I also had shooting pain under my right armpit. Just in my armpit though and not in my breast. I never really brought it up to my PS, but after a couple days it went away on its own. If it is really bothering you, i would definately call your PS. I hope you feel better soon.
