While discomfort and pain are common after a breast reduction procedure, steps are taken to manage and minimize your discomfort during the recovery period. You will be prescribed pain medications to help control any post-operative pain, and your surgeon will provide detailed instructions on pain management techniques, such as using cold compresses, keeping your upper body elevated, and avoiding strenuous activities. It’s important to remember that discomfort levels can vary from person to person, but with proper pain management and adherence to post-operative instructions, most patients find that the pain gradually diminishes, allowing for a smooth recovery process and the achievement of your desired results.
