Lymph node removal site tender
Hi ladies, Just wondering if the tenderness I am having at the site of my lymph node removal is normal. I had a lumpectomy and sentinel node removal done on 24/2/20 and until the weekend just gone...

Hi @Winetime, @Jwrenn and @kiwikris72,
So sorry you are having these issues. I just wanted to pop on and say I also had a tender, sore lymph node site post op and even now, 12 months later, I still choose to wear a soft stretch cotton bra (ie Amoena Frances), as I found the rubbing on the lymph node site too unpleasant.
I ended up seeing a specialist physio on two occasions for cording and stiffness which really helped. Don't delay making an appointment if you feel you need to.
My best wishes to you,
xx
