Recovery question! Did any of you who got either direct to implant or expanders immediately after your MX have your chest feel lumpy above the implant? If I run my hand down to the top of my breast from the collar bone it feels lumpy on both sides. Like maybe swollen tissue? Wondering if this is something that's common. It's only been 3 days since my BMX with silicone direct to implant. Thanks!

    i was swollen for several weeks after the implant. So since its only three days, i think its probably just swollen tissue —when you go for your postop check have the surgeon or nurse take a look at it to set your mind at ease . Take care
