Is a hard lump normal after bilateral mastectomy?

It is not typical to have a hard lump after a bilateral mastectomy, which is a surgical procedure in which both breasts are removed. After a mastectomy, patients will typically have flat chests or reconstructed breasts. If you are concerned about a lump after your mastectomy, it is important to see your doctor right away, as it could be a sign of a potential issue or complication. Your doctor will be able to evaluate the lump and determine its cause, and recommend any necessary treatment or follow-up.
