Rib muscle inflammation

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone can shed light on this. I had a lumpectomy and Snb in September last year and radiotherapy in December. I’ve recently felt that the skin around my ribs is inflamed. I don’t know if this is a heat reaction to the radiotherapy. I went to the GP yesterday and they weren’t concerned but I just wondered if anyone else has had this.

Thank you

Ah yes I can relate to this as there was a previous post and a kind lady sent me a great link which is below

She is Australian but I've watched other videos and they are very helpful.

Hi Debs33

I'm nearly 3 years post ops and treatment and I have to say I still feel tender and sore in some areas, been told its to be expected, simple painkillers help though.

Thanks Pusheen,

Its good to know. It can be difficult to navigate what you should worry about that hurts and what’s to be expected.
I hope it’s getting easier for you xxx
