Lots of people think large breasts symbolize beauty and femininity. But ask women who have lived with a pair of those envied breasts what it's really like, and you'll hear different opinion. Some will tell you about regular back and neck pain, mark in their shoulders from bra straps, worsening pose and an incapability to participate in certain activities. From their viewpoint, their breasts represent too much of a good thing, less would be better.
Women with very large, pendulous breasts may experience a multiplicity of medical problems caused by the excessive weight-from back and neck pain and skin irritation to skeletal abnormalities and breathing problems. Bra straps may leave notch in their shoulders. And unusually large breasts can make a woman- or a teenage girl-feel extremely self-conscious.
Large breasts can be a major problem for a woman causing: * emotional stress * teasing * unwanted attention * neck, back, and shoulder pain * unbalance with activities * bra strap grooving * rash under breasts * numbness in stretched tissues * difficulty finding clothing Observing the fact that technology advances and surgical techniques develop, more women are turning to plastic surgeons to help them correct their breast sizes to a healthier and more comfortable point. According to the statistic data made by American Society of Plastic Surgeons, about 105,600 breast reduction surgeries (reduction mammaplasties) were performed in 2004.
