Hi, i had a debridement done on right breast 5 months ago. i think there is a small piece of stitch still there coming from the inside. i also now have a small painful lump where the old lump was, is this bcoz of stitch or lump coming back?

SEE surgeon.: A stitch after 5 month should not be there, if present should be removed. A stitch can cause inflammationhence the lump or just scar tissue. In any event see your surgeon
