Bettybee Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Dumb question, how do I know if it's "nerve pain" that's causing me discomfort? I had my surgery on Monday and have had in my opinion an easy recovery so far. However I've noticed today some new pain. It feels like.. Burning/tingling/little electric shocks sort of thing the tops and sides of my breasts. I feel it a bit more on one breast than the other as well. I've also noticed it a bit more when I'm standing as opposed to lying down. Is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pink butterfly Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Yep we call them zingers! Nerve regeneration. The pain can be intense with morning boob but it does get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelbGal Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I got that nervy pain on and off for the first month, mostly in y left where I had the most numbness, and I guess as the nerves were starting to come back to Ike I was getting all this 'zinging' sometimes it would make me jump! But now I'm 7 weeks post op and haven't had that feeling for a couple of weeks and the feeling has returned in all my numb spots Bettybee and pink butterfly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

___emdawg Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 This was really helpful! I'm 8 days post op, and getting this feeling! Its such a weird sensation, at times it's a bit painful and others it kinda tickles! Soooo weird! Bettybee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudcrab Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 I also am getting some funny pain, but mine is mostly in my left nipple! Kinda feels like something rough is pulling at it and it mostly happens at night. Shocking and a little painful but the pain stops immediately after it has happened so not sure if it is nerve pain or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaisieF Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 I'm getting this burning nerve pain in both breasts, but more intense in my left, every morning around 3- 6am!!! It's only day 4 PO but I'm over it! Ouch!!! I think my areola reduction has something to do with it. It's more intense towards my nipples. And it's giving me weird dreams. :S BrizzyGal0994 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plurbit Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 It's normal! Your nerves are regenerating and it hurts at that time because your pain killers have worn off. Mine lasted for around 10 days but I have heard girls that had that for longer! Good luck MaisieF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrizzyGal0994 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Going to be a painful addition to this topic (and probably more-so just uneducated!) but i get this quick and instant sharp pain under my left implant when i take a DEEP breath in, where the post op bra band sits. When i hold my implant up towards my chest to take a deepbreath it goes away. Strange?Yet my right side is amazing and causes me no grief yet. My left side also seems to be sitting as the higher side. Almost feels like something is caught on it as its slowly dropping! I also have overs. Any advice appreciated. Will call my PS tomorrow for peace of mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
