Le of breast neck and side of breast towards the back

bhd1 · September 2013

I have le in the back neck and breast. My therepist has taught me massage and told me to wear assets camisole with a swell spot for the breast. The swell spot worked great for the breast. Yay. What about the neck and the area around the side of the breast? Would there be a swell spot for those places.?

I have a swell spot that starts under the arm and goes more around to the back. I use it where I had a seroma which has never totally dissipated and is sometimes achey. It helps. I don't think this was commercially made as such, but was more a trial run. I happened to be given one to try.

I have a Solaris swell spot that covers my breast and around to my back. I think I got it from Lymphedema Products. I will have to look.

Does insurance pay for swell spots?

bhd1:Go to www.lymphedemaproducts.com Search swell spots. The breast swell spot I have from Solaris will come up. Insurance would not pay for it. Jovipak also has a more elaborate one but it is much more expensive at www.jovipak.com under products listed as Breast & Chest Wall Pads. Becky

Barb, take a look at the Thorathigh swell spot. That scooped out place fits under your arm and the other two sections go around both front and back.

Bonney thx do you wear it in the day or just at night

Binney4 · September 2013

I wear it whenever I have swelling or pain, day mostly because I have a Solaris night vest that covers the whole side, front and back.

I see the vest is very expensive. Does insurance cover it?

Barb, you'll need to check with your insurance. Mine covers it, but there's a whole lot of variation.

My therepist recommended assets cami. That is not getting the swelling in the breast. I think i need the breast swell spot for day and vest for night. Can I order myself and try to submit the bill to my insurance?
