Lumps in my right breast after explantation. Could this be scar tissue?

hello Trace141  Regeneration of the sensory nerves is accompanied by tingling, burning, or shooting pains which disappear with time and are nothing to be alarmed about. If, however, swelling, redness, infection, or drainage accompanies this, then you will need to see the doctor at the office. #lumps #post-op

It is not possible to give you answers as to the nature of the lumps without an examination and possible further testing.  I recommend an examination by your surgeon or seeing a breast specialist.

Despite your previous history, any new lump should be examined & fully assessed by a doctor.  As a first step you should see your general practitioner & then be guided by them as to what, if anything, needs to be done further.  I agree that there is no need to panic, but also don't ignore this either.  All the best Kim

Thanks for your question.  What you feel is probably scar tissue, but you must be evaluated by your surgeon.  Without an examination and diagnostic imaging, it is impossible to diagnose.  It is very important that you are properly evaluated.

Any breast lump should be evaluated.  At 6 months post-op, what you feel could be scar tissue but it's best to return to your surgeon for  an valuation.   In addition to an exam, you may need a mammogram and further diagnostic tests.   Best wishes.
