Breast Cancer Surgery Recovery
Mastectomy: According to the American Cancer Society, most people can return to their normal activities in about 4 weeks.
Lumpectomy: Recovery after a lumpectomy depends on several factors, including the size of the lump to be removed, type of anesthesia, your general health, and your age. Healing time varies from a few days to a week.
During your recovery period after a mastectomy or lumpectomy, you are likely to experience:
- fluid drainage (collected with JP drains)
- localized pain at incisions
- swelling & bruising
- general discomfort
- hot flashes
- reduced mobility & independence
