Lump at the mastectomy site

joyishapi

hi

I was 29 years old when diagnosed with breast CA stage 1 iat the right breast ,and had my breast removed (modified radical mastectomy ). Now, almost after 2 years of surgery, I discovered yesterday that there is a lump just under the scar of the mastectomy. And a shooting pain is present. I think the pain comes from the lump itself. it's painful when i do deep palpation.im so scared. Im scared again. Please can somebody help me. Anyone who could give info or advice. Or someone who had experienced same thing.
