Lumpectomy scar tissue, lumps and fibrosis

Hi iman 

I wasn't advised to do self massage and I still have a few lumps/bumps from radio or scar tissue.  I guess there's no harm in doing it, if it makes a difference and doesn't hurt to do so.  (I am 6 years past diagnosis now and don't overly notice them, but I do know they are there, if that makes sense).

Kindest wishes, Lesley

Hi iman

I was advised by my physiotherapist to massage the scar tissue to promote healing.

Hello,  yes when I was done with radiation I asked radiation oncologist about massage it and he said to do it.  I started it 3 weeks post radiation per his orders and did it for a year but have started up again and will keep doing it.  I had told my ARNP at my yearly visit that my breasts felt a little soreness at times and she told me to self massage.  Here is a link that shows you how.  It really worked for me.  Breasts are soft and no lumps.
