Hello,
I was diagnosed with breast cancer last spring, underwent 5 months of chemotherapy, a mastectomy and breast reconstruction. I had some cording from chemotherapy which has become tighter and more painful after surgery. I saw a physio who gave me exercises along with heat and massage but I’ve had no relief yet and wondered if anyone had any advice at all. I’m starting a course of radiotherapy soon and hoped this may be a little less painful by then.
Thank you
