My surgeon removed 10 lymph nodes that were all clear. Currently my areola is extremely inflamed and painful. Even after my radiation treatment ended early January. Does anybody know - do the lymph nodes have anything to do with the areola and nipple?

neither the surgeon nor the radiologist oncologist have any answers for me about why my areola is so painful and swollen.
