Breast skin texture change (orange peel-like) after lumpectomy?

Linda, so sorry you are going through this. I had a similar situation when I was 49 of the surgeon removing a lot of tissue. I had LCIS at that time. What I’ve learned since then is lymph cannot move through scar tissue. So you are probably correct that it is fluid. Be gentle with yourself but continue to massage the scar and be persistent in reaching the Dr. tomorrow. Do something today to have fun. Thinking of you 🙏

Thank you so much jkh. I actually had some of the swelling go down and the pain dissipate. My post surgical bra helped that. My doctor's office was closed, so I have to try today (Tuesday.) I hope you are well and enjoyed your holiday. 🙂
