Abstract
Background: Breast cancer is a malignant tumor that begins in the breast cells. It can grow quickly and attack the surrounding tissues, or it can also spread to areas that are far from the malignant cell. Breast cancer patients often experience chronic pain conditions. The pain occurs due to the rapid and malignant growth of the disease, which changes the structure of the tissue and its functions, which finally results in pain. This study is aimed at determining the description of the pain in the breast cancer patients. Method: The research design used in this study was a simple quantitative descriptive method with a cross sectional design to determine the description of the pain in the post mastectomy breast cancer patients.
