After the procedure, it is normal to experience some degree of pain and discomfort, which can vary from person to person. Your surgeon will prescribe appropriate pain medications to manage any discomfort during the initial stages of your recovery. Additionally, using cold compresses, applying gentle pressure with a supportive bra, and maintaining proper rest and elevation can help alleviate pain and reduce swelling. It is important to closely follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions, which may include avoiding strenuous activities and taking any prescribed pain medications as directed. Your surgeon will monitor your progress during follow-up appointments and provide guidance on pain management techniques tailored to your specific needs.
