My surgeon said it was the worst fibrotic SM he has ever seen, it was as sharp as a knife. I'm having a lot of increased nerve pain n numbness I didn't have bf surgery. I think my surgeon always removes the 1st rib w his tos surgeries. I will ask him next visit.
Wish u best of luck for quick & full recovery!
