Breast Augmentation
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 1:11 am
I have a client who is going to be having a breast augmentation in a few weeks and has asked for support thru the surgery.
I will advise Arnica but also wonder about Conium and Bellis P for injury to the breast area and Staph for the surgical incision.
She is concerned about scar tissue as well b/c some women have told her they have experienced pain after the procedure due to scar tissue.
A plastic surgeon site explains it as this: An abnormally tight scar is known as a capsular contracture. As the tightening scar tissue around the breast implants form, it may cause the breast to feel firm, unnatural, or even painful. When you see a breast that looks round and hard, it is probably due to capsular contracture. The most severe cases are sometimes called “coconut breasts.”
Would you wait and see if there is scar tissue or go ahead and prescribe something like Thios in low potency to ensure it doesn't occur?
