Arm physiotherapy exercises for lymphedema after mastectomy/ BCS for breast cancer - Dr. Rohan 

One of the best videos I have seen on this subject and you so clearly explained things. Very helpful, thank you!

This one is a pretty phenomenal and incredible video for me and best guidance for patients as I wish it will help my mother to decrease the swelling of hand.

If you have any questions regarding post breast surgery arm problems, please write them in the comments section and I will be happy to answer them

I developed cellulitis following a lymphedema flare up of my left arm. I was very poorly in hospital for three weeks. Followed by removal of my breast implants to allow the cellulitis to clear 100%. It was more frightening the infection than my initial treatment of chemo etc. I really thought I was going to die when I developed cellulitis. Thankfully three years later I’m fighting fit once again. Very informative, thank you.

Dr Rohan is one of the best Dr. In breast cancer he advises Exercise of Arms after surgery that's very imp. One should follow to avoid Lymph dema problem one should follow

Small nd kind information will turns good quality of life to cancer survivors...hats off sir...🙌

Thank you so much for this! Such a helpful video! God bless!❤

Greetings to you thanks for sharing. Blessings. I recently had Masectomy. I did not know about the exercises.

Yes Doctor and nurse! I am not having any swelling. I will start doing the exercises. I had two visits already, one week apart. No stiches removed yet.

Thank you very much Dr.. very helpful

Very Valuable information sir many books write just Physiotherapy , they don't explain properly what sort of physiotherapy to be given !! Sir keep continuing making videos of such sorts in future too

Great thank you, our surgeons do not tell us all about this issue. I just have numbness in the back of my upper arm. Sometimes liquid add up around the surgical site I was given reparil tablets to release extra fluids. Of course after radiation therapy around the surgery tissue became an irregular shape and very hard, how can this be resolved, does massage help? Is it true castor oil can break up the hard tissue.

Thank you very much for giving this important awareness sir

Thank u for ds doc very informative...i will teach also to my co BRCA friends

Hello and thank you SO much for this info. My mom just had a 1 breast mastectomy and 1 lymp node removed. Can you tell me is swimming good for her? I heard swimming is good for general lymph health as well as rebounding on a mini trampoline except she hates rebounding. Also what do you think of dances that involve the arms that can be done at home? Thanks and much love from Canada 🇨🇦

Hello sir Tame sikhavadi te kasarat operation na ketala divas pachi kari sakay Me 3days pahela operation karaviyu che

Sir I had my bilateral mastectomy on 7 dec 2022 . I had invasive lobular carcinoma when i did my mri in my left breast and dome duspicios lesion in my right which was not proved in trucut biopsy. So prophylactically removed both. Both my sons are docs elder doing md radiodiahnosis 3rd yr pg and my younger derm pg so i gained little knowledge about the disease through them. My doubt is about doing the exercise with the drain tubes. When i lift my arms above i get pain in the drain tube inserted area so is it necessary to start excercise immediately after surgery or shall i wait till the tubes removed

Can do exercise while using arm stockings?

Good night just seeing your video , I did a mastectomy a year ago , and my arm is now seized , what kind of exercise do you recommend?

How do I know if I hav lymphedema. I hav pain n swelling on my side which had mastectomy. My arm feels painful sometimes

With the wound and the pain... it's too hard for me... really painful😢😢

I did my operation two years ago .but that time i don't know about exercise but now I feel my hands become swelling. What can I do?

Armsstockings. Where it will be available sir. Also i want to know now i am 4 weeks post operative patient after the mastectomy . Whether it os advisable to.go for long travel. Since was to g.chennai from Erode sir.

Does lymphedema occurs after 5years of breast reconstructions? What are the symptoms of lymphedema if it occurs after 5years?

How about those who had bilateral mastectomy. How could go about needles and blood pressure.

Ok then the number of repeating these exercises is 50 to 100 times. This is good to know as 10to 20 is not enough

If swelling happens is it possible it will be ok ?

done of mastectomy, I have a problem same Like you've said, please help me

what if patient is suffering from wrist fracture?

Please does lymphedema cause pain?
