Crazy nipple & pains !? Started by: Anonymous

    Ok so my recovery has been really good so far really

    It’s just my right (dominant side) that’s got a hypersensitive nipple & significantly less movement in my arm. My one week post op check is tomorrow so I’ll see what the nurse says.

    Was really nervous yesterday cause it was the last day of the muscle relaxants but hasn’t caused any drama thankfully. I don’t seem to have any bruising which is odd cause I’m a red head & normally bruise easily but I certainly won’t complain.

    I’ve tried to keep painkillers to a minimum but still taking some at night cause I wake up at the crack of dawn every morning with “morning devil boob”!

    I had 350cc unders (started with a 34a – lord only knows what I am now but I think I’ll be a large C once the swelling goes down)

    I had a “lip” on the under side of both breasts going into surgery so the Dr made cuts in the tissue to even that out. From what I can see it looks to have worked which is awesome. Thinking it’s that extra element that makes the incision area quite sore but I guess could just be normal pain & tightness from being cut open.

    How’s everyone else healing post op?

    Hi hun. After the pain was gone and arpund days 8/9 and up till now im 16 days post op. My nipples are crazy sensitive too. Not in a painful way. But just the temperature, or clothes rubbing or even walking and movement makes them stick up. All very new. I guess it must be the nerves readjusting and getting back to working. Hopefully it’ll all settle with time.

    Glad it’s not just me … I have sensitive nipples anyway but this is very uncomfortable

    Hah hah i agree. Especially with the bra not having any padding. I use my hair to cover up. I never had much feeling before my op so this is all very new to me. But it’s slowly getting less sensitive as each day passes

    These pains sound pretty normal so try not to worry, hope post op check went well

    Nurse at mine took the bandages off like they were waxing sheets, kept saying to myself, “do not slap her Zoe!”
