Thanks Colleen...... No, the soreness and swelling is still there. Coming up on 5 weeks since surgery. I'm doing therapy at home and I walk every day . It helps some but by about 8 pm every night, it's pretty rough. Tightness in area of scar and still swelling under arm.
I have an indention right above my scar that's about 2 inches in diameter. Anyone else have that happen ? Do you know what causes that. Any answers appreciated. Nurse navigator at surgeon's office advised trying massaging it, but hasn't helped yet.

@lucylocket did you meet in person with the nurse at your surgeon's office. Both my daughter and I have had double mastectomies and found that they would fit us in when we had problems like the ones you are describing. Also the visiting nurse can be extended. Sorry you are going through this and hope you can be seen if you haven't been!
