BE Breast Reduction - The Procedure
Women with very large breasts may suffer from pack pain, skin infections under the breast folds and breathing difficulties. During the operation extra fat, skin and breast tissue are removed and the surgeon designs a smaller breasts according to woman's proportions.
There are two ways to perform breast reduction: one with longer scar or an "anchor" scar, which is the procedure of choice in a case of very large breasts. The surgeon cuts through the nipple down and behind the breast folds. Afterward the surgeon lifts the nipple upward and shapes the breast. The second one is with a smaller scar, which is suitable for a medium size breasts. The cut is made only through the nipple and through the fold. Sometime the extra skin is not fully removed which leaves some skin folds beneath the breasts. Those usually disappear after 3-5 month (in case they persist afterward you might need an additional surgery to remove them).

BE Breast Reduction - Risks
Every surgery has its risks; the one you're about to have has a risk of wound infections or healing difficulties of the scars. It might be an asymmetry in the position of the nipple and in some cases you won't be able to nurse.

BE Breast Reduction - After Surgery
After the surgery some of the surgeon will prefer an elastic bandage or a bra and some will leave a drainage tubes to draine extra blood or secretions. You might feel pain with sharp moves or coughing, you'll receive painkillers to relieve the pain. The bandages will be removed a 1-2 days after the operation, and it is recommended to wear a sports bra for another 4-6 weeks until the area heals completely. During your first period after the surgery you might feel pain more then usual, you might also fell tingle or currents for a few month or even a year.

BE Breast Reduction - Healing
You'll be able to return to you're daily activities in a few days although you should restrain from strenuous activities for about a month. It is recommended not to smoke because smoking interferes with healing processes of your scars. You also should avoid sexual activities for 1-2 weeks.

The scars and bruises usually disappear after a few weeks and the final results can be seen 6 month after the surgery.

  • Australia's National Health & Medical Research Council (NHMRC) has awarded its largest grant for 2009 to the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) in Melbourne.This grant will allow the LICR to bring together 18 key investigators from five Melbourne institutions to develop new ways of detecting and treating cancers of the colon and rectum, the most common form of cancer in Australia.
  • According to research published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, glucosamine sulphate is no better than placebo in reducing symptoms and progression of hip osteoarthritis. Researchers conducted a trial to assess whether glucosamine sulphate has an effect on the symptoms and structural progression of hip osteoarthritis during 2 years of treatment. The randomised, controlled trial involved 222 patients who met the American College of Rheumatology clinical criteria for hip osteoarthritis. Patients were randomised to receive 1500mg glucosamine sulphate or placebo once daily. Primary outcome measures were Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) pain and function subscales over 24 months and joint space narrowing after 24 months. The following results were reported: • WOMAC pain did not differ (mean difference –1.54 [95% CI, –5.43 to 2.36]), nor did WOMAC function (mean difference, –2.01 [CI, –5.38 to 1.36]). • Joint space narrowing also did not differ after 24 months (mean difference, –0.029 [CI, –0.122 to 0.064]). The authors conclude that glucosamine sulphate is not more effective than placebo in modifying the symptomatic and radiographic progression of hip osteoarthritis over 24 months of daily therapy. However, the authors also mention that their finding have limitations, as many study participants had total hip replacement during the study, and the numbers were not balanced between study groups, making interpretation of outcome measures in these patients difficult.
