What causes breast pain?

Women's breasts really make people love and hate them. What you love is that breasts can indeed make women more attractive, especially plump women, who will look cool when they go out. Secondly, what I hate is that there are always some problems with the breasts, either diseases or pain, which makes people feel very distressed. In life, some women often feel pain in their breasts. What is the reason?

Breast pain is a very common problem. Because the symptoms are non-specific and the possibilities are too numerous, it causes considerable trouble to both patients and doctors.

Generally speaking, there are several possible causes of breast pain:

1. Caused by menstruation: This kind of pain is obviously related to menstruation. Usually, it causes breast swelling and pain two or three days before menstruation due to increased blood supply, and gradually disappears after menstruation. Due to its obvious relationship with menstruation, it usually does not cause trouble to the person concerned.

2. The pain is caused by pressure from an ill-fitting bra, which can be relieved by changing the bra.

3. Excessive breast size causes drooping and discomfort.

4. Pain caused by breast trauma.

5. Redness, swelling, heat and pain caused by breast inflammation and infection. Mastitis is particularly prone to occur during lactation. Proper treatment (such as administration of antibiotics and appropriate massage) can quickly relieve the symptoms.

6. Breast cancer itself rarely causes pain. Pain will only occur when the cancer worsens and invades nearby tissues such as the skin or chest wall.

Therefore, if women experience breast pain, they may try to find the cause themselves based on the above possibilities. However, if there is no obvious cause and the pain persists, it is necessary to seek the help of a professional doctor immediately.
