Why does breast pain like needles during pregnancy cause pain?

Pregnancy is supposed to be a very happy thing, but if you experience physical discomfort during pregnancy, you will not only suffer physically, but also suffer psychologically. Many women worry that the needle-like pain in their breasts after pregnancy will affect the baby's health. Many women do not understand why this phenomenon occurs. The following will specifically introduce what causes breast pain like needles during pregnancy.

During pregnancy, especially in the early stages, the placenta will secrete a large amount of estrogen and progesterone, which will stimulate the development of the mammary ducts and the development of the mammary alveoli. Some pregnant women will experience breast swelling and needle-like pain. This is a normal early pregnancy reaction, so pregnant women don't need to worry. It will usually improve on its own after a period of time. However, if the pain is very severe, or it persists for a long time without improvement, you should be alert to some breast diseases, such as breast hyperplasia, mastitis, etc. It is best to go to a professional hospital for a check-up to determine the cause of the patient's illness.

Breast pain in pregnant women is caused by breast diseases. Symptomatic treatment should be adopted according to the condition of the disease. This can ensure better treatment results. In general, patients can use hot compresses to relieve symptoms, or use some Chinese patent medicines that do not have a great effect on fetal development to control them, including: Xiaoyao Pills, Rupixiao, etc. Nursing and conditioning work in daily life are also very important. Do not overwork, and it is also very beneficial to keep a good mood.

Some women will experience breast pain during pregnancy. Don't be too nervous at this time. If you are always in a bad mood and have serious adverse mental stimulation, the patient's breast pain symptoms will become more obvious and severe, and have an adverse effect on the breast health of pregnant women. Only by maintaining a normal mentality can you improve the condition faster.

What causes breast pain?

1. If the breast pain is paroxysmal, and often starts before menstruation or worsens before menstruation, and can be relieved or disappear after menstruation, the pain is distending or stabbing, and sometimes involves the armpit or shoulder and back on the same side, and there is mild to moderate tenderness locally, then it is considered to be a proliferative lesion.

2. Sometimes, there is no obvious pain in the breast, but only pain in one armpit or shoulder and back, which may be a malignant lesion. These subtle changes should not be easily ignored. If there is severe, persistent, burning pain in the breast that progressively worsens and is difficult to relieve on its own, and is accompanied by ulceration and necrosis of the local tumor or ulceration of the surgical wound and surrounding skin, it is breast pain in the late stage of malignant disease.

3. If the nipples are severely painful, broken or cracked during breastfeeding, it may be caused by the baby sucking and biting the nipples, resulting in nipple fissures. If the breast pain is only mild dull pain or aching pain, the onset has no obvious regularity, and is only sporadic or paroxysmal, and some are persistent, it is often ignored because the pain is not obvious. It should be noted that such breast pain may also be a signal of early breast malignant disease and should be given sufficient attention.
