Hi Boolay, 

I am pleased to hear the healing is going well after your mastectomy . This tightness may be part of the healing process but it would be a good idea to get in touch with your breast nurse to ask for advice on how best to deal with this tightness. I am sure they will have come across similar cases before and will be able to tell you what to do. 

It may help too to talk to one of our cancer nurses and you can reach them on this free number 0808 800 4040 - the helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

I hope that you manage to speak to someone soon about this and that this tightness eases soon. Other members of our community will have been through something similar before following a mastectomy and will have dealt with all sorts of possible problems after a mastectomy. It is comforting to know you are not alone going through this gradual healing process and I hope that you make a full and quick recovery. 

Best wishes,
