Has anyone felt a huge area of hardness where the "hole" might be? I had a lumpectomy 3 weeks ago. And 2 weeks following the surgery, I could feel a hard lump right where my two lumps were. Is this normal part of healing?

    you may have a seroma. it's fluid collection which takes a while to go away. 1 1/2 yrs later i still have some. supposedly nothing to worry about but i would bring it to yr dr attention. i had to have some of it drained
