Hello and thank you for posting.
I am sorry you are still having discomfort from your surgery in February. Tissues and nerves can take a while to heal and calm down after an operation.
If you remain concerned, talk it through with your doctor or specialist nurse (BCN).
Breast Cancer Now, the UK breast cancer charity, has information about ongoing pain after breast surgery if helpful to read.
Take care and if you would like to discuss things with one of the nurses on our helpline the number is Freephone 0808 800 4040. The lines are open from 9 am till 5 pm, Monday to Friday.
Sarah.
