Hi, strange question but I’m now 10 1/2 months post op and in the last month or so have found my breast to be really quite tender to touch, feels like bruising inside and along all the scars- is this normal? thanks K
I am sorry to learn that you needed to have breast surgery. And that you continue to find the area is still tender.
Some people can haveongoing painafter breast surgery, which may last for months, possibly years. One of the common areas can be around the scar, the breast itself, or the armpit. One of the reasons can be because of nerve damage.
It is best to let your breast specialist nurse (CNS) know, as they know your situation and they can assess you and hopefully give you more information.
I hope you can get some support with this soon. Please feel free to get back to us, if you would like to speak with one of our nurses we are available between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday and the freephone number to call is 0808 800 4040
