Hi, I had a single mastectomy 11 Jan 2024 and recently I have been experiencing the occasional episode of stabbing pain on the side of surgery - is this normal?

HI Jenna,
A very warm welcome to our forum. I am sorry to hear about the stabbing pain on the side of your surgery. I am not a doctor, but I suspect that there is still some healing going on under the surface. I have had a double mastectomy and I still get the occasional episode of stabbing pain. I have had these checked out and nothing untoward has been found in the past 14 years. I expect that you will soon be having your annual review post-surgery. Please mention these at your appointment and get them checked out.
I sincerely hope that all is fine. Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.
Kind regards,
Jolamine xx
