The size of your breasts shouldn’t limit the things you love to do or cause you pain. Women in New Jersey with larger breasts often suffer serious problems from carrying extra weight. The painful bra strap grooves and ill-fitting bras are one aspect but many women also suffer from:
- Neck, shoulder, or back pain.
- Unwanted attention.
- Headaches or difficulty sleeping.
- Inability to properly fit into clothes, bra, and bathing suits.
These are life-limiting activities that no woman should have to live with and if you thought “yes” to even one of these complaints, you should schedule a consultation at Dr. Comizio’s office in Morristown, New Jersey.
