A member asked:
Does use of the lima in bypass surgery cause the associated breast to swell, even years later ?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Generally should not. Are they tender to touch and painful? Make sure you are not taking meds like Aldactone or spironolactone. They may cause swelling.

Not likely: Breast swelling can occur with lima surgery but have never seen it to occur years later other causes should be considered.
