Soreness 2-3 months post-op. Scar tissue?

[ladiesman69]

Can scar tissue be sore?

My chest was completely flat post-op and ever since about the three month period when I was told to begin firmly massaging I've found both sides to become a fair bit more sensitive/painful to the touch. Albeit, only initially when I start massaging. There is no tenderness after a little bit.

On the left side in particular I can see and feel quite a large amount of scar tissue. The right has less. Both are still puffier than the weeks post-op and moreso than I would like.


So:

1. Does this still just sound like scar tissue? I am worried it may have come back in which case I'd take a SERM or AI to fix that

2. Is there any merit in getting a shot of cortisone to reduce scar tissue? I read several members on here getting that done.

Hi pics before and after would help.
But yes, scar tissue can be sore and at least for me varies from day to day.
