I can tell you that a friend of mine had the same problem...her big boobs would cause her back pain. She had a surgery, and they were brought down to size, and she is not having any problems now. She says she likes them better a bit smaller (they are by no means small now...still look VERY sexy), and her back aint hurting her no more.
I think the problem with some women who have big boobs is that most are uncomfortable with their own bodies. They try making tehm appear less huge by slouching which leads to spine problems. As I always advice patients, if you have nice round headlights, FLAUNT them. They are supposed to be blessings. But if you have been maintaining a good posture & it is causing problems, that is when surgery would only be advisable.
I totally agree with dimples. The back and spine problems usually come from incorrect body posture and not from the big nice boobs that you own ...
For example: I had neck problems in the past and I always thought that my neck was the cause. Instead it turned out that all I had to do is to modify my body posture. Since that week ... my neck problems were over.
hey all i luv all the replys thnx sooo much for ya help.
one of my problems is posture and i am doing physio for this but i all so get alot of pain through out my right and left hand which has coz me to stop all studys b'coz i am unable to write for long periods of time and my physio has given me excersies for this to but they recommend getting a reduction i have recently found out if i get this done and have children after they will grow back soo i have been thinking alot bout it and have now came to the conclusion that i will wait till i am older and have finished having children.
thnx to crocivic91 for ur life experince it goos to hear that the surgery does work and i also would be much happier with em smaller.
Hi Sheema. I think I can offer you a bit of help here in possibly giving a name to your condition, hopefully aiding you in getting some relief from the pain and particularly the numbness that is plaguing your hands. I am a certified massage therapist, and though I can't say definitively, what you describe sounds to me very much like a common condition known as "thoracic outlet syndrome." If you run a search on Google you will find plenty of info. Though it is a bit more complicated, it is basically an intermittent compression of the brachial plexus (a bundle of nerves radiating into the arm), as well as possibly the subclavian artery, by the scalene muscles in the sides of the neck, and possibly downward compression by your collar bone. Though your bust size is likely a contributing factor, massage therapy could afford you a great deal of relief. Since such therapy is not covered by Medicare, I would recommend looking into any massage schools in your area where there is likely to be a student clinic offering very affordable treatment. Though the condition may require a more advanced practitioner, it is certainly worth looking into.
As far as your bust size, surgery is likely the only feasible option. I personally know of no exercises effectively capable of targeting and reducing fatty tissue in the breasts. This would require either maintaining an abnormally low body fat ratio as with female weight lifters, or losing a very dangerous amount of water weight. Sorry I can't offer more in that area.
Hope this helps a bit.
Hey, I think opting for surgery or some sort of weight loss program is a very good idea. My daughter's babysitter had the surgery and it worked wonders for her. She had chronic back pain and neck pain and no therapy in the world could releive it until she had the surgery, it was a real blessing for her. I used to be a double D after I had my two kids, and I had some major pain too but I was also heavy any way, so when I went from a tight size twelve to a size one/two(through excersise and eating right) my breast size got down to an A. Its kind of small but you know what I have always been a large C all my life and I really don't mind being more on the small side, Id rather have a tight fit body and be a size A than be a tight size twelve and be a double D. I can also wear cute little shirts now that use to look ridiculous on me when I was bigger, I don't know about you but I know there are woman with huge boobs who flaunt them and thats fine but If you are like me I didn't like drawing all that attention on me and it made me very uncomfortable because people talked to my chest and not my face, men and woman. Plus my husband is an man so he would take my cute butt over big boobs anyday. Not all men are just hung up on boobs. If you decide to do it with excersize, you won't be able to just target you chest, when you loose weight like that you will loose it all over your body. The only way to get rid of weight in the chest and nowhere else is though surgery. Im not sure if you wanted to loose weight in general but excersise and eating right,I think is the easiest, safest and most affordable way. Good luck!
