just had operation-how long for breast swelling to go down?

Can anyone tell me how long it takes for breast swelling to go down after lumpectomy?

  • Hopefully some of our members who have had a lumpectomy will share their experiences with you soon Slinkymoo but if you're worried you're welcome to give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Your doctor or breast cancer nurse (if you were assigned one) should be able to advise on this as well.

    Kind regards,
