Ribcage pain

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. Wasn't quite sure. I had a PBMX with TEs on May 21, incl removal of 5 sentinel nodes. Had my first fill of 60 cc a week ago (ouch!!). A few days before my fill, I began experiencing pain on the top of my ribcage--- just on one side. It runs the gamut from piercing to aching to burning. Asked my PS and he said likely it was from the tissue being pulled off the ribs during MX--- making it sound like my "shock absorbers " were removed. Some days it's bad enough that I need a pain pill.

Anyone experience this? Does it resolve on its own? Does the tissue that used to act as a shock absorber grow back? Might my being short (5'2") and short waisted contribute (ie, my bra band sits on the top of my ribcage).

Thanks in advance and positive healing thoughts to all
