Dr. David Song of Medstar Health in Washington, D.C. discusses nerve pain after breast surgery and breast reconstruction. Patients have reached out to the Foundation to ask what nerve pain is and how it can be eased and treated.

Dr. Song begins with an anatomical description of nerve pathways and the difference between sensory nerves and motor nerves. He continues to describe how these nerves are disrupted during surgery and why patients experience various forms of nerve pain.
