cording/swellin underarm

I have just discovered this forum on 17/5/2010 haveing had a mastectomy nearly 4weeks ago.
My problem is,I went back to he hospital last week because of swelling under my arm,and was just told to keep excersing (which I do 3times a day) and rub i believe gel in while I streach the arm,painful but I'm doing it.
Told PT not nessesary (like many answers to my questions I feel the answer motovated buy cost) However if it would help I'd try?pay for any treatment.
I lve in Hertford,hertfordshire,can anyone advise me who to contact please.

Dear gilly13:  I do not know any physiotherapists in the UK.  You might ask your primary care doctor for a recommendation or ask another breast cancer survivor.
