Some people experience pain after removal of breasts due to irritation of nerve endings which are cut during surgery. The pain slowly subsides. Some medications can be used to get relieved of the pain. please consult your physician for neuropathic pain relief. Regarding breast reconstruction, please don't worry about recurrence of breast cancer. Reconstruction doesn't increase the risk of recurrence. Lastly never lose your self esteem because of breast removal. Go on with your life. Life doesn't end with one organ removal. Enjoy and help others and make use of this life given to us by God!
