When it comes to cosmetic procedures for the breasts, treatments like breast augmentation and breast lifts are likely to come to mind. However, breast reduction is a powerful cosmetic tool for alleviating certain issues with large breasts and feeling more comfortable in your own skin. In this post, we’ll be taking a closer look at some signs that mean you may need a breast reduction.
Posture Issues
If you have large breasts, you may have noticed that your posture can suffer after long periods of standing. Large breasts can negatively affect your posture and your spine. Slouching to remain comfortable from large breasts could be a sign that you would benefit from a breast reduction.
Aches and Pain
Large breasts can lead to excessive strain on your muscles or joints. Some common places to feel pain are the back, neck, and shoulders. Over time, strain on your muscles could lead to chronic pain or irritation. These symptoms usually get worse during physical activity like exercise.
Issues With Clothing
Overly large breasts can make it difficult to find clothing that works for you. Certain clothing may be uncomfortable or may lack the proper chest support. These different factors may limit your choice of bras, tops, and dresses.
This often includes bras with thinner bra straps. The heavier weight of the breasts often leads to the thin straps digging into the skin and becoming uncomfortable.
Skin Irritation
Large breasts can create a natural fold of skin underneath them. The constant friction and increased build-up of moisture can cause skin issues to appear and reoccur. Skin redness, fungal infections, and rashes are all symptoms of irritated skin underneath the breasts.
