Ellody 9 Posted August 27, 2012 Hello to all. I'm having pain under my left breast whenever I bend down. It's really painful. Also, the pain travels to my back on the left. Pain feels like something is ripping inside and its located on top of my major incision on the left. Called surgeon he ask if I had alcohol, aspirin, or anything that I'm not suppose to eat, thinking it might be an ulcer. I only chewed gum and had whole wheat toast. I am 8 weeks post op. Have appointment on Wednesday. Anyone had same pain. I am so worried. Thanks. Sent from my HTC EVO using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HamDan 61 Posted August 27, 2012 Do you have a fever? Is it warm or red? is it tender to touch? Did you have a drain there? Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dwaterman 35 Posted August 28, 2012 I used to have those pains and it was gas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndTimesTheCharm 68 Posted August 28, 2012 I'm one week post op and I am currently feeling the same thing...I think mine is from leftover gas and the incision. I wake up ok but at nite it gets worse. maybe your muscle hasn't healed yet? Also if you are having fever go see a doc and don't wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
