Painful scar tissue?
I had a lumpectomy 2 years ago and am still having pain with the scar tissue in my breast. The lumps are attached to my pectoral muscles and sometimes it gets so painful I can feel it radiating in my back. I try to massage it to loosen it up an that helps some but not for long. Does anyone else have this problem and do you know if there's something that can be done. My oncologist said any cutting to remove it would just cause more to grow....sherryg
