Just returned from a trip to Cyprus it’s now 5 weeks since my lumpectomy and I have slight swelling which I haven’t had before, is this normal and it’s very tender
Hi my underarm is still very tender as is my breast still but it has just been 10 days since op so Hoping it’s just repairing. I’m in on Wednesday so will let them know. Bruising is looking good as is scars but the underarm is slightly swollen. Not painful just feel a slight burning when I touch it. Around my back shoulder blade x
