I had severe cording it was all the way down my arm and into my breast. Exercises ladies exercises the more you do them you will break up that tissue its the most weird sensation when you feel it go ping and the cord snaps it weird, I also went to a massage therapist who work on it and the relief was great rub sorbelene into that area while under the shower this helps a lot. I must say its the most uncomfortable pain you get from cording I was in tears some days, not pleasant but it goes away, but mine did come back while having radiotherapy. adean
