Suggest Treatment For Discomforts On The Implanted Breast With Cancer
I had breast cancer, subsequent reconstruction with a mesh I believe - four years ago. The breast where the implant is has deformed some and I am suffering so bad I can barely breathe. Would you think this is capsular contracture? Is there anything I can do for this? I cannot take anti-inflammatories. Should I apply heat or cold to the breast. I have taken 3 Tylenol threes today and it has not helped. Thank you.

Hello,
If it is so bad you need to get operated and remove the implant. It is an implant-related issue and it won't resolve without removing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
