Answer #1

here are a few possible causes to your breast pain. Hope this helps. You could have pulled a muscle or ligament in the chest wall. But, if this was your case, your pains wouldn’t last very long Pain coming from elsewhere can be associated with an underlying problem such as swelling (inflammation) of the chest wall. This is called costochondritis or Tietz’s Syndrome. Of, you must knw that also a breast cancer called fibroadenoma could be the cause. It could be localized deep in breast tissue so you wont be able to palpate it. I suggest contacting a doctor. Your doc should examine your breast and take a detailed history of the type of pain you have and how often it occurs.

Answer #5

I think it’s natural, all growing breasts are tender. If you feel a lump on that part of the breast when you touch it, then I would see a doctor.
