Hi, I had 2 WLE and to be honest didn't have any real pain after. After a couple of weeks I started to get electric shock type pains which are the nerves healng but I didn't have any of the pain you describe. Why not give your breast care nurse a call and see what they say.

I am posting a link to the post surgery information on this site which I hope you will find helpful:
I'm now 7 days after my WLE surgery, had my dressing removed with no infections, however, the discomfort has started to increase instead of decrease. I can only describe it as a tightness under my breast similar that wont go away. It is extremely painful sitting up after I have be asleep. Is this normal?
