Ask the Doctor-Do Soft Spots Indicate a Problem?

This week, James E. Craigie, MD, of The Center for Natural Breast Reconstruction answers your question.

Question:  I have an expander and I notice there are soft spots on the front of my breast. Does this mean there is something wrong?

AnswerThe best thing to do would be to ask your surgeon about the spots on your breast.

The soft spots that you described don’t sound worrisome but unless we did your surgery and are familiar with your situation then we have no way to knowing if anything is wrong.
