how long will the pain last/
i had my lumpectomy and an axillar dissection on 12th February. Follwing this, my armpit and the back of my arm were numb. Now the back of my arm is painful to touch. feels like someone has rubbed it...
Hi Chris, just to watch I got breast lymphodeama when I flew from student to melbourne, so my breast swelled excessively but not my arm, it's only happened a few times but I had some lymph drainage and that helped. And it blew up the other day after sanding some furniture obviously over did it. Just remember try to not have blood or blood pressure done on that arm as a precaution. I also take precautions when I fly now. Regards adean
