2 months agoBreast pain 6 mo post radiation. Does it get better? Or worse? I massage regularly and my skin feels normal, but wearing a bra all day causes pain.

2 months agoPost-radiation breast discomfort can improve gradually over time as tissues continue to heal, though the timeline varies for each person. Many patients find relief through gentle massage and adjusting their daily routines, and discussing specific comfort strategies with your care team can help you find the best approach for your healing journey.

2 months agoK B Don’t wear a underwire bra! I was told this years ago, I wear a soft bra when I go out, and no bra at home! Use Aloe for healing, not cream 🩷
