New to this forum ,I had a wide core biopsy two weeks ago ,bruising is slowly subsiding but I still get sharp pains in the area? Does this sound normal? Having a wide local excision on 4 April so I guess it will continue
I'm glad to hear the bruising is starting to improve although I'm sorry about the sharp pains you've been having.
Being sore or experiencing pain or tenderness after a biopsy is usually quite common but if you're concerned then do be sure to have a chat with your GP or your medical team.
Hopefully some of our members who have had this done will share their experiences with you soon as well but if you'd like to speak with one of our cancer nurses about this, they're just a phone call away on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
Wishing you all the best with your recovery and for your wide local excision next Monday.
