Pain after mastectomy surgery
Post mastectomy pain can have many causes. This article by a US based cancer surgeon gives a good overview of the problem of pain after mastectomy surgery.
At times the language is a little techical but he does describe the problem of pain around the mastectomy wound or scar, pain in the armpit after mastectomy and the rarer - but quite weird - "phantom breast pain."
The article is a good place to start if you want to read about the variety of pain problems that can develop after mastectomy surgery
