    I had pain for awhile after surgery, especially the underarm area. Has your surgeon evaluated the hard area? Could be a seroma in the surgical area.

    I also had a Lx 3 weeks ago and am still in a lot of pain underarm. Will be seeing the surgeon on Friday. Nights are the worst and I’m taking tramadol to get me through. Want to wean off
