    Hey girls. Don’t know if I’m worrying to much. I’m feeling great not much pain anymore. But I’m 5 days po and my left boob is fine no pain or anything but my right arm feels really tight and if I move it feels like my stitches are pulling. I also have strapping. Should I be worried? Xxx

    Stitches pulling are just them healing up Hun so try not to worry too much about that 🙂 aslong as they don’t seem exessivley swollen / one bigger than the other & hot to touch it’s totally normal! Mention it at your 1 week PO just to be on the safe side if you’re worried tho. Every little pain worries me now haha! xx

    Was gunnna say exactly what Aimee said Hun. I had that feeling too and it disappeared around two week mark. She told me not to worry unless it’s hot to touch or one seems largely bigger than the other. X

    The feeling of stitches pulling is actually your nerves reawakening. It’s normal. I had it more in my left boob. It terrified me. Painkillers should numb the pain and make sure you sports bra is tight/very supportive. I wore a less restrictive sports bra one day because I just wanted to be comfortable and found that made the pains worse.

    Hi girls! I’m 3 days post op, 325cc mod plus partial! I’m not even in pain but the strapping is so tight I feel like that’s making me so uncomfortable? Did any one else have this and does any one have any tips? X
