I underwent breast augmentation (BA) on Monday 12/11, with placement under the muscle and an incision under my breast. Over the past two days, I've been experiencing a burning/stinging sensation at one of my incision sites. It occurs when I get up or move in a certain way. I contacted my plastic surgeon's office, and they reassured me that it's just nerves. However, I still have some concerns. There is no swelling, redness, or heat, but I can see some old blood under the steri strips.
An in-person evaluation is essential for an accurate assessment and to provide you with peace of mind. However, the type of sensation you are experiencing is commonly reported after breast augmentation surgery. I wish you the best for a long-term outcome that you will be very pleased with.
Thank you for your question. A burning sensation is often associated with nerve regeneration. Monitor the sensation and if you remain concerned, it's advisable to speak with your plastic surgeon again.
A burning sensation after the procedure is common during the healing process. If the pain worsens and the incision becomes red, consult your plastic surgeon.
Feeling discomfort during the healing process is normal, but it's important to monitor the incision for signs of infection such as redness and increased pain.
After undergoing a procedure, it is normal to have sensations at the incision site. As the healing process progresses, these sensations will subside. If there is an increase in pain, swelling, or redness, it is important to discuss it with your plastic surgeon.
