Experiencing discomfort in the breast can stem from various reasons such as hormonal changes, muscle strain, or cysts. It's also possible that stress plays a role. Common associated symptoms might include tenderness, swelling, or sensitivity. To alleviate discomfort, consider applying a warm compress and wearing a supportive bra. It’s important to monitor your symptoms closely. Should the pain persist, worsen, or be accompanied by other concerning signs, I strongly recommend consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation.

It is a fact that breasts can differ slightly in size, which is normal. However, in case of a case when one side of the breast is too big, painful, or swollen, you must be concerned. This may be a result of hormonal changes, cysts, or an infection. It is highly recommended that you visit an oncologist to get it checked and find out the right treatment.

You I have had pain in only one breast since last December. The pain use to come and go. But it’s be straight pain for 4 months now. Sometimes I feel shooting pains and it goes into my armpit and down my arm. My nipple has a skin tag on it. My break has a discoloured spot about two inaches away from nipple. Not on my nipple but really close to it I have little little lumps where thick puss can come out. My nipple itself is not inverted but there is an indent right beside the nipple. Two months ago for about 3 days my gland on my neck right above my collar bone was swollen on the same side as my breast with problems

Female | 25

Pain, shooting pains, skin changes, lumps with pus, and swollen glands are all signs that need attention. All of these could be the result of different things, one of them being infections, the other one being breast cancer, but that is less common. It's vital to have an oncologist look at you and, if necessary, run tests for a definitive diagnosis and treatment.

I have a breast lump in my left Brea. Its been 20 days.There is no discharge from the breast. I had a miscarriage 4months ago. At that time i had milky discharge. The lump is brown in colour. And have little pain.Could this be a sign of breast cancer ?

Female | 31

A brown lump with no effusion could be a benign condition and not breast cancer. After miscarriage and milky discharge in the past, it is a possibility as well. Pain is one of the symptoms of hormonal variations. Nevertheless, one must visit a gynecologist for a thorough examination.

Experiencing swelling, tenderness, or unusual changes in breast tissue can occur for various reasons, such as hormonal fluctuations, cysts, or infections. These changes are often benign but should not be overlooked. To manage discomfort, consider maintaining a healthy lifestyle, wearing supportive bras, and applying warm or cold compresses as needed. However, it is essential to consult a medical expert for a thorough evaluation to rule out any serious conditions.

Female | 18

You are nervous because of a swelling in the right breast. It is encouraging that you are so keen on your body. Not all breast lumps mean cancer. Some lumps might be hormone-related or cysts. Cancer may cause the growth of rather stiff and painless lumps. If your lump has been there for a long time and doesn't hurt, you should let an oncologist check it.

I am 29 year female and having pain I'm my right breast not on the whole breast only one side and when I press pain is more .

Female | Lima Bailung

Unilateral breast pain or the heavier side of the breast, when you press in this particular, can be caused by mastitis. Mastitis describes a situation where a milk duct becomes blocked or infected. Further symptoms may involve feeling hot, red, or swollen in the same area. It's crucial to see a healthcare provider who can make the correct diagnosis and treatment. They might give you antibiotics, or do compressions to reduce the pain and swelling with the last alternative. Self-care measures can be an adjunct to medical treatment, thus it should be a priority to seek guidance from a professional in healthcare.

Hi am 18 years old female...and I feel hardness in my right side breast same like as lump and pain in my both breast ... sometimes there are some 1-3 red spots rashes upper my breast..

Female | 18

You may be undergoing symptoms associated with your breast health. The hardness of the right breast that you are feeling could be a lump, which might be produced by hormonal changes or the process of inflammation. The pain in both breasts may be caused by either hormonal fluctuations or wearing an improperly fitted bra. The red spots or rashes could be a result of a skin reaction. Regarding these issues, you should ensure you are wearing a bra that fits you properly and then seek consultation with an oncologist for further evaluation and guidance.

Female | 22

A throbbing or stabbing sensation in the chest can be triggered at the age of 22 by a variety of issues, such as hormonal transformations, trauma, disease, or particular drugs. Hormonal shifts around the menstrual cycle can cause one or both nipples to hurt. If you are experiencing pain along with other symptoms like redness, swelling, or discharge, see a healthcare professional immediately.

Hello, my sister discovered she had a breast cancer in March 24, she had a successful lumpectomy in March 28, the pathology report said that tumor was 22 x 23 x 18 mm, has 5 involved lymph nodes, ER strong positive ( score 8 ), PR negative, HER2 negative... after that she did a pet/CT scan in May and the opinion of the radiologist written in the report was " patient with right breast cancer after surgery showing no evidence of hypermetabolic lesion distinctive for loco-regional resudal/recurrence of metastatic disease. I also attached the detailed results of the pet/ct itself. Now does it recommend for her to start chemotherapy or to do oncotype dx test first and btw she had 25 sessions of radiotherapy, so after the surgery ( in March) we had the radiotherapy in ( June) and now we don't know we have to start chemotherapy or do this test first since she has ER positive, HER2 negative and she's postmenopausal. She is 55 yrs old. Now I now your opinion, your advice and recommendations for us. And if she did the test and the result is law and chemotherapy is still recommended for her can she take at least a less intensive chemotherapy regimen.

Female | 55

From the information that you were able to share, it sounds like your sister had the necessary treatment done successfully for her breast cancer. Given that she is ERpositive and HER2 negative, the Oncotype DX test can be used to determine whether she requires chemotherapy. If the test indicates low risk, she might not have to undergo intensive chemotherapy. This check is based on the study of the genes present in cancer cells and helps to determine treatment methods. It is important to talk about these options with her oncologist so that the best solution can be found for her case.

You could be having a problem known as costochondritis, which is a situation where pain and swelling occur near your breastbone. This may be due to activities that tire your chest muscles or an infection. To promote the ice pack action, try not to engage in activities that increase the pain. If the swelling and pain persist, it's better to see an oncologist for further assessment and treatment.
