can swelling after breast augmentation occur again after the swelling had gone down?
I had a breast augmentation almost 4 weeks ago and everything was fine post op. After the third week, I noticed that my swelling had gone down a bit. Although my right breast was slightly bigger than my left, but I knew that it was normal until about several days later, I woke up and noticed that my left breast had now gotten slightly bigger than my right. It just felt a lil bit heavier. The next morning, I was doing my routine massages and felt pain on the side of my left breast but it only hurts when I touched it. I called my PA and told me it was normal and said for me to take any anti-inflammatory drugs (advil, motrin etc.) i haven’t taken it yet because the pain has subsided and I am concern that I might have hematoma and don’t want to take advil etc for it will worsen it. Do you think I have some kind of a complication or is this a normal healing process? it’s just strange to me that I have swelling again after it’s gone down a lil bit.

What can I do to help reduce the swelling after my breast augmentation?
It seems like the swelling is getting worse. I’m so swollen it is painful. I keep putting the ice packs on and taking my meds and all but does not seem to be helping. Or is it too early? I just had the procedure done on Thursday.

How long after a breast reduction does swelling go down?
I had a breast reduction a little over a week ago and am still fitting into some of my old bras. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this surgery.
