Who diagnoses cording?
Hello all. I had bilateral mastectomy on 5th April. Received favorable pathology report 17 April. I've been very lucky. I'm recovering from mastectomies with my next review mid June. I'm doing exercises and massage but am somewhat confused about the difference between my symptoms on left side compared with right side. This may seem a simple question but who diagnoses cording? Surgeon and/or physiotherapist? And if I have cording, should I wait until mid June for some form of treatment for it or will it simply resolve by itself 8 weeks post op? Should treatment commence after 8 weeks? I'm certainly displaying my confusion here!
