can massages increase my breast size?

Question

Does breast massage help increase breast size?

Answer 1

No: Massage does not increase breast size.

Answer 2

Yes: Back, neck and shoulder pain can be improved by a breast reduction. A breast lift is more of a cosmetic operation, but since some tissue is removed, back symptoms can improve.

Answer 3

Not exactly.: Most breast reductions are done for back and neck pain caused by the weight of large breasts, and these often reduce back pain. A breast lift is done to put sagged breasts back into a more normal position. These do not include removal of much (if any) breast tissue, so would not be expected to be very effective in helping with back problems.

Answer 4

Heavy painful breast: Not a lift but a reduction... First get fitted for proper bras/support garments. Second consider physical therapy. Third discuss with your internist or family care physician and discuss referral to a plastic surgeon and/or breast specialist.

Answer 5

Breast reduction: Is more likely to help your symptoms, because a reduction takes away the extra weight of a big breast. A breast lift just re-packages the breast into a smaller, up-liften skin envelope - but the weight is the same, so the symptoms will probably continue.

Answer 6

Possibly: In the adjuvant setting a hormone blocking agent such as an ai might be used. That would be for hormone sensitve tumors. In metastatic disease the situation can be more complicated. In that case Herceptin could be used as a maintaince agent. Other drugs such as tykerb, (lapatinib) perjetta might fill this role. If you could give more details, i can be more specific.

Answer 7

Nothing as good: I'm assuming you have completed chemotherapy and are now facing the year of herceptin (trastuzumab). I strongly encourage you to take it. Why? In the last decade, no treatment has decreased the risk of recurrence anywhere close to what Herceptin (trastuzumab) offers. Ask your doctor for your risk of recurrence with or without herceptin (trastuzumab). If cost is an issue, even 3 doses might be enough to make the difference!

Answer 8

Diet may help.: Look at your female relatives. Do any have larger breasts than you? If not, your genetics may prevent great size increases. Extra calories will help to increase fat mass, and since breasts are mostly fat, then they will grow. Pregnancy will also enhance breast size. Try surrogacy if you don't want one of your own.

Answer 9

No: There might some temporary fullness, due to increased blood flow to the area - but this would not last. Only surgery - with either implants or fat grafts - gives a lasting change.

Answer 10

Diet and exercise: The old reliable is still the only one that works with the least side effects.

Answer 11

No: Creams, lotions, potions & spells will not make your breasts grow. Neither will hypnosis. If you gain weight a certain % will go to breast (how much can't be predicted). If you become pregnant breast size will ^. Mother nature takes care of prepubescents and pubescent girls. The only permanent solution is surgery.
