Eye Surgery Considerations@eye-think

Day 6 after breast augmentation and I’m still swellingㅠㅠ How long does swelling last??

Hi everyone, I finally got my new breasts~ From days 1 to 3 after surgery, I was okay and had almost no pain~ On the afternoon of day 3, I tried to drive but failed, and after opening doors and washing my hair, I think I put some strain on my chest. After that, it felt like my breasts were tearing? The soreness started getting worse, and then they suddenly swelled up a lot. I was supposed to go in for a follow-up in the evening on day 5, but they had swollen so much and felt so tight, like they were about to burst, that I went in right away in the morning. They did an ultrasound too, and there was nothing abnormal. They said it was just natural postoperative swelling and that it would gradually get better, so I’m icing them now and waiting a bit. The bandages are off and I’m only wearing a compression bra, but when I wake up after sleeping, they’re more swollen and my breasts feel tight. My upper breasts are rising above the bra because of the swelling. Why does it feel like they swell more after I wake up?ㅠㅠ Is it because my breasts get pressed down by gravity?? I thought the swelling would be a little better this morning too, but I still have this soreness like my chest muscles are being stitched with thread and pulled?? It still feels like my breasts are going to burst, and the swelling and slight fever? that heat sensation are the same. Did everyone also have swelling up to day 6 or 7? I went to the clinic, had the bandages removed, and saw my breasts for the first time, but they were so swollen it looked gross. It’s like looking at a water balloon that’s blown up so full it’s about to burst....?? They’re shaped like rocket launchers.... I hated looking at them. Are all the photos people post where their breast swelling is gone and they look pretty good after just 7 days advertisements?? Are they brokers??ㅠㅠ Or is mine just lasting a bit longer...??
