Sore Throat. Picc Line In The Arm. History Of Breast Cancer. Anything To Concern?
I have a pic line in my arm due to infection after from breast cancer and plants and yesterday I needed someone to change my pic line and no one was available because it was really wet and itchy so I changed it and it came out a little bit so I just cleaned it up and covered it up and everything and as I was to my antibiotics today I started getting a sore throat.
Sorry to hear about your problem. This sore throat is probably not related to the picc line and this could have occurred because of your low immunity levels due to the cancer. As you are already on antibiotics, you dont need to worry about it. If there is swelling or redness at the site of the picc line, then you need to visit a doctor and get is changed. Hoping for the best.
