Have breast pain, tenderness & discoloration 8 months after lumpectomy & radiation, is this normal?

Breast Cancer - I had a lumpectomy myself is going to be a year now in August 2019 and sometimes i feel the soreness still, discoloration is still there the nipple area is getting better i guess it takes time but all you need to do is after showering put some lotion on your breast and nipple every day
to me is helping I can see the difference. I hope this can be of some help god bless.

I completed my lumpectomy, chemo, radiation several years ago, but still have a very, very tender breast. Breast exams are uncomfortable. My physician says this is "normal".
The part of your question that I can't relate to is the lump and crustiness around nipple. I believe you should follow up with your physician for those questions.

Hey msdeems,

I have never had a lumpectomy though I have had a biopsy, but your symptoms sound like you may have an infection. The discharge and painful lump are indicative of something that needs to be checked by your doctor ASAP.
