Bright red swollen breast since lumpectomy

Posted by shirls45 @shirls45, Jul 17, 2025

After three consultsl ì have finally found out that the swelling at the side of my breast is a seroma and the redness of my breast is whole breast lymphodema. I have been referred to the lymphodema clinic to see what they can do. Apparently it can take a long time to go away. I've been advised to wear a bra day and night. Has anyone else had this issue and if so how long did it last?

A breast sling and/or strapless cushion to fit inside your bra made by ComfortSlings will go a long way toward protecting you from any irritation that might occur beneath your breast from accumulated perspiration and skin-to-skin abrasion. The company sells both slings, with cushions on adjustable straps that tuck beneath the breast, and cushions without the straps to tuck inside your bra cup. They are game changers time in protecting and soothing inframammary skin. http://www.ComfortSlings.com Good luck!
