Re: pain in sentinal node scar
I have had this also - have you been straining the area by carrying heavy items on the side of the surgery.
I have been over doing it and from my armpit down to my surgery site (high axillary area) has been hurting and is sore to the touch. Too much swimming, carrying heavy bags...etc. plus the weather plays its part as Becky mentions.
If the pain continues over 2 wks, have it checked.
