2.5 weeks post Lumpectomy and SNB

Give it time. I posted at about the same time because my inner and back of my upper arm felt like someone had rubbed it with sandpaper. I am 4 weeks post lumpectomy and axillar dissection and still have the feeling in the back of my arm as well as still feeling numb under the arm. The numbness and pain in the upper arm is becoming more bearable and manageable. I take painkillers at night still but have weaned off of the daytime ones. My scar itches at times which is infuriatingly uncomfortable but a good feeling because it means it is healing. The post op bra from Berlin is a godsend as it it gives great support. Do the exercises to get range of movement and the Pilates dvd provided  in the care package is good also. Time will bring improvement- I promose
