I'm almost 3 weeks post lumpectomy and 2 lymph nodes out. I got an infection in my breast wound that has delayed my return to work and am on antibiotics for that. The actual wound doesn't hurt, nor does the under arm wound, although I have the stiffness and pain there when stretching, but have bneen doing my exercises, so thats getting better. My problem is around the nipple and front of breast area - shooting, sharp pains, pin like pricks, sore, swollen and still bruised nipple area. I cant wear a bra - tried twice. However I'm very large boobed and I cant go to work without a bra on after chrismtas! Are there any other big boobed women who have any ideas for me please? Sports bras hold you in tightly so that you dont bounce when running so they are too uncomfortable as I cant have the pressure. Many thanks ladies x
