Hello Linda and thanks for posting

I am sorry to hear about your past mastectomy and the pain and discomfort you are now experiencing.

Unfortunately no one here can say what the cause may be or if it's related to your previous surgery. It is best if you speak with either your GP or the breast unit to get it checked out to find out more.

Hopefully there will be a simple reason for this that settles for you soon. In the meantime do take pain relief if you need it.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Best wishes,

Naomi

Hello Linda ,sorry to hear about your pain .I also had bilateral mastectomies in July 22. 
I would actually phone the breast nurse and have a chat with them , maybe you have pulled a muscle and it’s nothing to worry about . I think they are more clued up than GPs. 
Good luck and keep in touch xxx

Thank you for your advice and reply.
