Suggest Treatment For Breast Cancer

I have had breast cancer and it will be five years since diagnosed in October. I have noticed a lump which is in the seam area of my thigh close to my vagina. It has become painful in the past couple of days and that is why I realized it was there.

Hello dear. The chances of recurrence in a case of breast cancer after 5 years are little if complete treatment was taken. More over it is little unlikely that a breast cancer will reappear in the area you have mentioned. There can be other possibilities like some infective focus in the thigh or in the genital area which is causing the swelling. Still i would say that you should undergo a clinical examination and a tissue diagnosis because cancer can behave in a bizarre way. Hope thats solve your question. But do not worry.
Thanks
