Fat-sacks Under the arm
How do you ladies deal with the lumps fatty tissue left under the arm after a mastectomy? I find them very uncomfortable and very annoying, and sometimes feel pain from them.
I have had a double mastectomy and no reconstruction, so not wearing any bra.
Yes, I feel it is a problem for us larger ladies.
I spoke to the surgeon very briefly once, but every time I go to the hospital for a post op review/check up, I only ever see the registrars and they are unable/reluctant to help.
I went through the public hospital system. I am not sure how to get an appointment with the actual surgeon.
