Extremely informative, now I know my mother has seroma.

Good information this was my experience. My lumpectomy was a walk in the park compared to my 4 part shoulder fracture. I only took 8 paracetamol as it wasn’t too painful. I started my prescribed arm exercises the next day, I sat up to sleep for 4 weeks, I wore a crop top in bed and soft non wired bra during the day wore compression stockings for 3 weeks to prevent DVT. I covered the scar from the third day with Vaseline petroleum jelly and covered with gauze. The third week I change to silicone gel twice a day. I also drank lots of water and ate more protein, took vitamin D3,K2 C and Zinc daily. I tried driving week 3 but steering pulled on my breast it’s now week 5 and no problem driving. Still not ironing, hoovering gardening or lifting anything heavy. Started walking week 3 as prior to that the movement jiggled my breast and swinging my arm also made my breast tingle and was painful. I had spitting stitches around the cut around my nipple, I bathed it in salt and warm water rinsed, dried it and then put on the silicone gel thinly. It’s week 5 for me now. I still get tired, but managing to do more each day if I do too much my breast is painful so the following day I have to be careful. I had sentinel,lymph nodes removed too so I made sure I massaged my arm to try and prevent cording it seems to have worked. I have what looks like a bruise on my breast but the consultant said it was the dye which they inject to find the sentinel nodes, apparently it should go in time. Awaiting Radiation now, new things to learn, the arm exercises at the beginning are to help you be able to raise your arm above your head, which is what you have to do for each radiation session. Good luck ❤

Thank you for posting. I'm about 3 weeks out and glad what I'm feeling is normal. I've had major abdominal surgeries and also not as bad but harder in it's easier for me to over do it and pay for it in soreness/pain. Hope you are feeling better in your recovery ❤

That was the worst part.

I had one and still healing back to work on Monday lenitit duty

I'm 30 and have just been told I have breast cancer. I have to decide on a Lumpectomy or mastectomy. They want to take away 1/4 of my breast. I don't have large breast so god knows how small my breast will be after if I decide this. Good video and will help

I had my lumpectomy in November and it went pretty smooth. While I was healing I had sharp piercing pain that would come and go every now and then and the hard tissue underneath the skin. But the worst for me even after it healed is the itching, it gets bad.

Hot water pack or ice pack which one is good for lumpactomy

ya right its very pain full

Is it normal to start having itching in the areola /nipple area after lumpectomy?? I’m 3 1/2 months from having lumpectomy and now experiencing this.

My doctor wouldn’t give me anything but ibuprofen. And I had to ask for it. Another fact is that it takes more than a few days after surgery. I now have a seroma but I don’t know yet if my surgeon will aspirate. My surgery was in early October 2023, I’m still healing. My doctor prescribed gabapentin. But it makes me lethargic and nauseous if I try to take a hike. The hardest part was the radiation. Absolutely awful.

I agree. I had the 2 times a day brachytherapy for 5 days. They sold it as so easy. WORST decision ever! Barbaric treatment and tons of lasting issues.

are protein drinks good as a protein?

Surgery and post-op healing really auck traumatic. Compeomised ROM and atill with numbness/pain here & there . Thanks Dr. Amy 🌎💖🩺🙏

I have just finished my lumpectomy on august 4th and path of recovery. When can i start my regular exercises.

Good luck you will be fine. I got a mastectomy 3 weeks ago and I am okay now. You just have to deal with pain management

Still experiencing pain 15 days after lumptectamy surgery.

Still have pain 4 months out while healing well-some people are sensitive to the procedure and it can take longer. Hope you’re better soon.
