Hi guys,
I had top surgery last Tuesday, and got my bandage removed yesterday. While I had my drains in, the bandage was very tight, and I wasn't allowed to loosen or take it off for a week. Now, when I laugh or cough, I have this painless pinching feeling in my ribs on my right side, an inch or so below the incision. It doesn't hurt, but it's quite uncomfortable, it feels like someone is poking me in the rib from the inside. Does anyone know what this might be?

My guess is its just things healing together. I remember weird sensations etc around the incision, like pin prickly feelings. It was odd. I wouldnt worry about it, unless you feel that it is more than just the healing taking place.
