I'm 4"10 very petite but I have 34D boobs. They dnt look as big as they sound but they sure feel like it. I hate them! They hurt me sooo much. My back has been hurting a lot lately and I just don't know what to do about them. My mom doesn't want me to get breast reduction because even though its done at my age she says that it hurts and they've gotten smaller. But they havnt any suggestions?
Nallie answered Tuesday April 4 2006, 10:19 pm: Hi,
No one should have to live with pain that can be treated. Some insurance plans, if not most would pay for a breast reduction if the person has chronic back pain. Perhaps your Mom will agree to at least a consultation with a plastic surgeon so she can get the right information. If she does not agree to the surgery, you'll have to wait until you are at the age of majority and can consent on your own. There are exercises that can strengthen your shoulders and upper back and bras that can help a great deal. Be sure to choose a bra with soft cotton wide straps and good support.

loves2shop86 answered Tuesday April 4 2006, 5:51 pm: well, im not sure how helpful this will be considering the fact that im nowhere near a D... but i know people who are, and they do say that it hurts! i know to get breast impants, they reccomend that you be at least 18... but i'm not sure if that's the case for reductions! i mean you are still growing, so i am not sure if it is a good idea now! if you do decide to go through with it, talk to a doctor and do a lot of research to make sure that 15 is a good age to do it! but for now, all i can really tell you is just to buy very good (usually expensive) bras with very good support in order to ease your pain! also, if you don't exercise already, try doing that! i hear a lot of people say that when they lose weight, it usually comes off their breasts first! good luck with whatever you choose to do!
