Do clips cause breast pain?
” No. Any pain you experience after a breast biopsy is related to the procedure, not to the placement of a clip. It’s also highly unusual that someone will be allergic to such a clip. • “I think I can feel the clip moving.” This is doubtful, as the clip is the size of a pinhead. Many women are surprised to learn that they may have been living with such clips for years. If you’ve ever had any abdominal surgery, for example, you could have as many as 200 much larger clips in your abdominal cavity. So, got a clip in your breast? Good. It marks the spot for future evaluation of what we hope was a benign finding.
