Hi everyone, I am only 5 days post op and I know they heal at different rates but over the past few days I've noticed one is bigger than the other. They both started off the same size and same size implant in each, has anyone else experienced this? Also incision on right boob feels really irritated by sports bra, how loose can I make sports bra? ATM I keep pulling sports bra below incision.

Thanks

Which sports bras are you wearing honey? I had M&S ones which come down under the incisions so didn't irritate them at all. Maybe you need a slightly bigger band size?

You are really early post op so I would try not to worry too much about the size difference. The chances are they will catch up as they have so many changes to go through yet.

.x. i wouldn't worry too much about size differences at the moment. you will still have swelling which might go down at different rates etc. remember to treat it as two different ops, they will heal and settle/drop at different rates so they may look different for a while. with the irritation it might be the stitching on your bra causing the problem rahter than it being too tight. you can't make it too loose because you need the support xxxx

As Sally has suggested, try a larger band size sports bra and/or a different style. Maybe try the ones that look like sports tops rather than the bra styles?

Thanks eveyone it is an m&s one. I have two bra extenders in at the moment. I was a 34b to start had 380 overs and was told by surgeon to wear 34c for first week. I get to wear 34d or dd on Friday after I've seen nurse. SB doesn't feel too tight on boobs but it only hurts when I pull band off the incision. Will just need to put up with it until Friday. Probably annoying me more coz there's not much else to do when resting up Hysterical
