Hello,
Know how you feel after a Lumpectomy and Lymph Node removal on left side nearly 3 weeks ago. Constantly lifting my arm so its not sticking and applying moiststuriser two to three times a day now that i can actually touch the area there to see if it helps. Stabbing pains in the armpit come at odd times and occasionly inthe breast. I am applying moisturiser over all the breast to prepare for radiation treatment also. I guess this is one of the side effects.

Hello RangesWhites,
Appreciate your reply and hope that you have had some improvement. Thank you for letting me know re: use of moisturiser. I have added this to my toolkit. It did not occur to me that using this to prepare for radiation could be helpful so super grateful to you for sharing this. I will definately try this. I have developed cording so now concentrating on physio around this. Happy healing to you.
