It has been 4 months since my mastectomy and I'm still having dull upper back pain. I just went for an x-ray. I know you can have pain after surgery but 4 months later? Kind of worried.

    Absolutely - you can have pain for literally years. I am 7 years out from MX and still have pain

    in different places related to the MX. My sister had a frozen shoulder after MX. We both ended up

    having to go to Physical Therapy.

    Good luck!
