Methods: 120 patients will be randomized into 3 groups: A, treated with Bromelain/Boswellia Serrata Casperome and Centella Asiatica with Vitamins for 30 days; B, treated with Bromelain/Bosswellia Serrata and placebo for 30 days; C, treated with 2 placebos. Inclusion criteria: adult (>18 years) patients with breast cancer undergoing quadrantectomy with or without sentinel lymph node biopsy. Exclusion criteria: diabetic neuropathy, previous breast/chest surgeries, allergies to studied drugs, severe kidney failure, alcohol and toxics addiction, axillary lymphadenectomy.
