What Causes Breast Pain Post Partial Mastectomy?
I had a partial mastectomy of right breast and level 1 and 2 lymphnodes removed 2 years ago. My mammo and ultrasound of area was clean in Nov. 2015. For the last couple of week I have been having pain in right breast and under arm pit by right breast. Could that just be scar tissue pain from like shoveling snow or exercising? What do you think.r

Hello from my own opinion I am suggesting a form of relapse from the post mastectomy also it may be that it is due to post operative wound scar formation around your breast radiating pain to your ampit please check out with a diagnostic center for a CAT scan or breast biopsy meanwhile take a pain killer pending the result of your text
