Itching Breasts

I recently heard about the Victoria Secret bra scare.  I had a breast reduction 1 1/2 years ago and I have not yet healed fully.  I continue to go to the plastic surgeon and I have constant itching and swelling around my scars.  I always wear Victoria Secret bras and I am wondering if this has anything to do with my present healing.  I will ask my physician next week when I go see him for my 8 wk check.
What do you think?

I will certainly let you know what my surgeon has to say. Do wear the Victoria Secret bras as well.  I am wondering if there is a connection between the recent scare and my poor healing process.

I had breast augmentation in April, and have experienced the same thing.  I have had a constant redness around my breasts and directly beneath them since surgery.  I recently began using metrogel, which has helped a little.  Please update after visiting with your surgeon.  I will advise mine of this recent complaint.  It justifies alot of my symptoms.
