Why am I having burning pain 6 months after breast surgery?

I do have the same thing because of the radiation, but I just finished it in Sept 30th. I’ve been on pain just before finished my treatment and now I’m not even support my wonder bra… do you thing I’ll get better soon?

It is nerve pain I had scan all ok but put on gabapentin

I’m having similar pain after 3 years. My oncologist says she has some patients 10 years out still having nerve pain. She said the nerves don’t like to be messed with and don’t let you forget it.

I wish all of you the best even through this pain journey. I just Breast Cancer surgery last Tuesday. This is my second time the first time was 17 years ago on the left side.

One question: How long do you say you have Cancer after treatments?

Burning sensations after breast surgery and lymph node removal can be concerning, but this type of nerve-related discomfort is actually quite common during the healing process. The ultrasound scan will help provide clarity about what's happening, and it's completely understandable to feel anxious while waiting for answers - many others in this community have shared similar experiences and concerns.

Had mastectomy on May 1st/radiation just finished. Still having pain in underarm and chest. Just had 6 month checkup and doctor said it is normal from nerve damage and possibly will NEVER go away??

Yep mine still is ongoing too.

This is what I have to to look forward to next week.It doesn’t sound good. 🙏🏽

Me too, surgery removed ith breast and lymph nodes on one side- still have pain like nerve shoots, and they said scar tissue starts to form and that can be painful as well. It’s never ending. Developed lymphedema in left arm and hand too. Now that has to be managed all the time.

Your journey sounds like mine
