Summary

Pain is an unpleasant sensation common to all those who undergo surgery. Several studies indicate that 40-60% of patients experience the post-operative experience and can be caused by both internal and external stimuli. Chronic post mastectomy pain is a condition characterized by pain in the anterior chest, armpit, and/or upper arm, usually ipsilateral to surgery, which begins after mastectomy or quadrantectomy and persists for longer three months after surgery. It can become chronic in a broad spectrum of conditions. Psychosocial factors such as anxiety and sleep disturbance are being revealed as crucial contributors to individual differences in pain processing and outcomes. Some researchers have reported the associations between the development of persistent pain, sleep disorders and reduced physical activity. Taken together, these symptoms may lead to disability and worsened quality of life. Due to its benefits, the American Cancer Society recommends to begin as soon as possible from the diagnosis of cancer, physical activity. Aim of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the effects of motor and/or sports activity on the intensity of chronic pain and in symptoms of sleep disorders, caused by post-mastectomy chronic pain. of life of women underwent mastectomy
