breast implants? how bad is the pain afterwards?

Answer 1

As with any other surgery there will be some pain and discomfort. Most of this disomfort will occur in the first 48 hours. However, most patients are able to return to work within a few days though they will not be completely healed by then. Many doctors will prescribe medication to lessen the pain and ease the recovery process.

Answer 3

After a short recovery period the patient can go home with two small bandages and return one week later for suture removal. If the implants are placed above the breast there is only moderate pain after the surgery, much like muscle pain after too many pushups. Mild pain medication is usually taken for the first two or three days. Most patients can have the surgery done on Friday and go back to work on Monday, still a bit sore, but perfectly able to function. Under the muscle placement is much more painful and requires at least a week of immobility. Usually, no vigorous exercise such as jogging or workouts for three weeks is recommended. After that, virtually nothing one does can injure the implants.

Answer 4

pretty bad. I helped three friends after their surgery. They needed help getting on and off the toilet, and coughing or laughing was unbearable. They needed pain meds round the clock, and it took about two weeks to recover.

Unfortunately one got an infection had to have the implant removed, go on two weeks of IV antibiotics, and then had the implant replaced with the same pain as the first time.

I wouldn't do it , but then again I am a man. Your choice good luck.

Answer 5

Depends if it goes right. Their is a very high chance of problems during or after surgery.

One of my friends got into a car crash about two months after getting implants. They exploded, and she almost died from the pain.

Answer 6

Depends on your pain threshold and how well the painkillers work.
