Tips to Reduce Pain After Breast Cancer Surgery

Recovery from surgery can be painful. In this video Dr. Julie Billar offers some advice on how to reduce pain after breast cancer surgery. Many women use an ice pack wrapped in a towel after a lumpectomy or mastectomy to reduce pain and swelling. Dr. Billar reminds patients to wrap the ice in something to prevent burning of the skin.
Wearing a supportive bra after a lumpectomy can help prevent excessive movement in the breast. Certain exercises can aid in recovery, too. Dr. Billar demonstrates some exercises and talks about their benefits.
