Strange line/tendon Thing all way down tummy??????

Hi,

This is a little strange I have this line feels a little like a tendon that runs from just below boob all way to near tummy button. Slightly painful, anyone else had anything like this. I didn’t think there were tendons in tummy??

I’m 3 and half weeks post op

Thanks Helen x

Hi sounds like the same thing i get its near my tummy button i have spoke to the nurse but they cudnt be sure wat it cud be , how often do you get the pain? Im nearly 3 wks po x

Pain is only there when I go poking and prodding it! Might ring tomorrow as it’s a bit weird. Jut worried it’s more than a strain

Hi!

Ive heard of something called Mondors cord?

Some girls have posted about it b4!

Best to look it up as i dont know much about it!

xx

yep mondors cord, google it. usually goes on its own. xxx

That’s brill , thankyou, have consulted mr google and it’s exactly what I have! Thanks girls, such a wealth of knowledge! Will ring tomorrow, just about taking ibrufen for the pain (suppose I should just stop prodding though!)

Glad i could help!

And yes.. probably best to stop prodding it!! ha!

Take care

Hope your ok, i had this in my left boob for about 2 months and it goes on its own.

It felt really weird as it pulled when i did a big stretch but not in any painful way!i saw my surgeon and he said dont worry it will go on its own, dont worry loads of people get it, its not harmful in any way and it will go xx

i’ve got mondors cord in my arm from my pre op when nurse took my blood. the nurse spoke to mr chantarasak yesterday about mine and he said it takes up to 3 months to go away! x

I appear to have one too..mine runs down the top of my right boob…and only shows when I put my head down and my chin on my chest…odd little thing …
