Pain after radiotherapy

Hi 

mine is recent radiotherapy 3 weeks ago. but I still get twinges in back shoulder blade. Plus I’ve a small lump on my scar underarm where they removed sentinel node. Think this may be scar tissue but I’m going to get it checked

I have aches in my shoulder blade and upper chest following radiotherapy. I had my mastectomy in December and had no pain to speak of, but since radiotherapy, which finished over a month ago, I get the odd twinge, it’s not too severe but it’s there! Think  we’re all a bit paranoid about aches and pains, but I guess it’s to be expected considering it’s quite aggressive therapy! xxx

Hi Mazz

i get slight numbing pain and the odd shooting pain but nothing too bad. Hopi g this little lump is just scar tissue x 

Yeah, that’s exactly it! Shooting pain, it goes as quickly as it came. I have numb spots all over my surgery site, but I think the nerves are healing here and there, again, causing strange sensations around my whole chest. I have a small lump too, but I’ve been told it’s irregular scarring. Boobs are a strange shape to sew up, so to to be expected I guess xxxx

Oh the joys of surgery. 
I’m guessing any twinge or slight difference will be more noticeable now. 
onwards and upwards hopefully now x
