Hey I am 6dpo from having 350cc under the muscles and I have been experiencing bruising that is getting worse by the day? Has anybody else experienced this extent of bruising? Thank you attached a picture below

Yes my nurses appointment is on Monday xx

Hi Lucy,

I had really bad bruising under both my boobs, it was so dark, it was almost black! Quite scary looking, surgeon seen it the morning after my op and apologised. He said it was from the local anaesthetic he put in before making the incisions? He said he must’ve nicked a vein with the needle. I’m 9 days post op and it’s getting so much better, almost away now. I feel I’ve had hardly any pain from the op apart from the pain from this bruising. The pressure from having a bra all the time makes it worse.

Hope your bruising settles soon, xxx

Yes, mine were like this for a while at the start but it went away completely x

I’m 5dpo, 290 overs, anyone else feel really uncomfortable taking the post op bra off? I was changing today and the weight of them they feel like they’re being dragged down and it feels so strange? I’m still quite swollen underneath my incisions with quite a swollen sternum?

Thank you everybody I bruise easily anyway so must just be unlucky with my bruising, it’s all down my sides now! X

I felt the same as you on day 5 I feel like day 7 was a turning point for me, I feel a lot better now still slightly weird without the support of my bra though so I think it’s normal x

I had to take mine off it was pinching my skin the nurse said bra was too small for me . So been wearing sports bra tried at least 9 post op bras none of them fit me I have small back

I’m starting to get bruising in the middle I’m on day 8
