Underarm soreness after radiation
Can anyone explain why I have more underarm pain post radiotherapy my surgeon says that rib pain is often a "pesky" problem but to me it's more than that & it's not just ribs its also under my armpit ...

thanks all for your comments, I was beginning to think it was just me being a sook !!
@SoldierCrab yes the radiation went right under my armpit similar to yours because I had a full axillary clearance. It's only 2 months since radiation finished so still a while to go. My RO said all good at my final appointment with him - 3 weeks after radiation finished. Maybe I need to make another appointment with him, I tried asking my oncologist but it was not her area !
Soft bra with no insert for 2 hours when I go out & can't wait to throw it off as soon as I get home - guess that's just how its going to be for now
