Lumpectomy on jan 30 still swollen/inflammed

Toyamjj

Hello,

I dont know if I should really described it as swollen or even say that its inflamed, I think I got that word from the dr at my follow up appointment, I remember them saying "your gonna have some inflammation from the surgery" what I'm noticing is more of a skin change... Anyway my lump was located on the outer right side of boob. That area is not where I'm noticing the inflammation/skin change at, its on the lower half of my boob, that part of the boob that hangs, so almost like the u shape of the breast. The skin has the look of an orange peel, almost like the look of inflammatory breast cancer when u look up those symptoms just not red. Is this normal for being 5 weeks out? Also just had my cat scan of my breast this past Friday to prepare for radiation therapy. Would the cat scan pick up a new cancer?
