Fluid Filled Cysts, Swelling In Armpits, Back Pain, Tiredness. What Is The Best Treatment Available?
I am a 6 yr bc survivor ... lately I have had fluid filled cyst like swellings in my armpits, fanning out from my arm pits and in my lowar ab area right above my hairline. these are filled with fluid and sometimes blood. I can't seem to leave them alone. sometimes when I am trying to express them I can actually feel fluid moving around. coule this be I am extremely tired most of the time and can't seem to move around in bed much because of extreme back pain.

This seems to be lymphangioma surcumscriptum which sometimes occur post the surgery for bc.it occurs due to damage of lymph vessels during surgery. You must seek help of a surgeon who could advise u to go for decompression surgery (manual lymph drainage or compression garments), exercise and skin care.
