Are Twinges In Breast Of A Breast Cancer Woman A Cause For Concern?

I was diognosed with breast cancer a year ago. Following surgery and radiotherapy I am having regular check ups and so far all is fine. However I occasionally have Twinges in my left breast. I have read that that can be normal, do I need to worry?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is understandable to be concerned but if your follow up examinations and assessments are normal then there is not likely to be any concern.

Any dangerous changes would usually be picked up during follow up.

If you remain concerned however, you should see your doctor for an additional assessment.

I hope this helps
