Hello,

You will likely have some pain after breast surgery (lumpectomy, mastectomy or breast reconstruction).

For most people, this pain is temporary.

Pain right after surgery is usually due to injury to the skin or muscles.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
