How to Reduce Pain After Breast Surgery: Lumpectomy or Mastectomy Recovery Tips
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- Swelling and pain after breast surgery are very common, but if it lasts more than a few weeks, it's not normal. Post-mastectomy pain syndrome, as well as swelling and general pain, can be caused by multiple different things, but in this video, I go through the various ways to help reduce pain and swelling after a lumpectomy, mastectomy, or breast surgery. There are things that can be done to decrease breast pain, decrease chest and breast swelling, and improve shoulder motion and function.

Thank you. You have cared enough to make this problem simple to understand and fix.
Thank you. 13 days post op and this is very helpful!
Just what I needed post surgery.
Thanks for the info. I was one and half month after my surgery and feel.tingling pain. Now i have new ideas to lessen these pain
Thanks so much for the information ,so helpful ❤
Bless you for making this effort! 3 weeks post Operation
Thank you for this video It was very helpful
Thank you for the heads up as I'm 3 days post-op lumpectomy. I will watch this video again before going for my follow up.
I am on day 3 post op today. Hope things are going well for you.
Thankyou I haven't started Radiation treatment until next week,so I am gathering all information about ,after etc,am interested in foods the nature the skin and cells.Am drinking smoothies with natural yoghurt,berries,and fresh pineapple.
Thanks for this video, i started feeling severe pains on my arm a year and some months after i had a mastectomy, can you recommend any exercise. I'm currently on pain relieve.
Thanks Kelly♡. I love that you share about cording as it wasnt something I had heard about until I experienced it post mastectomy. As you mentioned, I was able to alleviate it from visits with my physio, but it would have been really nice to be prepared with that information before hand. Thanks again!
You’re so welcome, Chelsea! Im so happy to try and bring more awareness. Thank you for all your support 😊
Thanks so much
Every time I mentioned that my pain still lingers since months from the surgery, I always get a response like "oh" or "huh that's weird". I don't even want to go to any more follow ups since my questions wouldn't be answered. My surgeon said if anything I'd need to go to physical therapy but at this point I still have bills coming from that surgery and lost my insurance shortly before my surgery due to my business being shut down. It's been 4 months for me now and compression can hurt even a little. For example, I wore scuba gear yesterday and the straps need to be tightened but it was making it feel bruised again. I mean I hope clothing you suggested could help. I get really anxious thinking about massaging them
I'm debating getting my 4 fibroadenomas removed because of how much lifting is required of me at work. I'm not sure how fast I'll recover. I'm rethinking my surgery now next month. GAH!
I’m so scared I’m getting single mastectomy with all lymph nodes removed.
How are you doing now? Hoping everything went well and that you’ve had a full recovery. I’m curious to know if you’ve experienced any lymphedema?
Me too. I pray that everything goes well for both of us!
I know what your going through I got scared of getting any lymghnodes removed. I didn't get any removed when I had two mastectomies. I didn't get any lymghnodes removed. I already as it is have trouble with swelling. For awhile I had to have my regular doctor prescribed a diarectic. Because I couldn't cope with it & then I couldn't walk or exercise for about three weeks. Not fun then I couldn't take pain killers because I have fatty liver problems. I have to be careful or be aware of treatments or medications that cause swelling.
Thank you
Thank you.
You’re welcome 🙂
Will insurance cover any of these bras?

Would time in a jacuzzi loosen up my range of motion?
How long does seromas take to disapper
I'm 2 1/2 weeks out but it feels like my skin is tearing, it's sooooo tight even to gently stretch. Seroma drained yesterday and will again Monday then Wed. Seems too much skin is gone. 😢😢
It's just the Seroma. I also had a hematoma and all that was not drained enough that the liquid made a hole in my scar and came out when I was asleep and I woke up in a puddle of blood and other stuff. Then another hole came up and lots more stuff came out. 7 weeks on I have one bag still catching stuff coming out of one hole :(
Which state & city are you
I'm in Minnesota 🙂
