    Hi I had this pain in the same breast a few weeks ago it was a ache n didnt even last a few minutes..I went doctors who done a breast exam but didn't find anything and out it down to hormones which makes sense as i was on my period at the time...i havent really had pain lately but no the fact that i was prodding and poking it caused pain so i advise u not 2 do that!

    so as a man this may sound crazy but a very real pain across the chest is normal and usually if youve been medically checked its more of a tense muscle issue. One thing i have done to help me with things like this is started doing deep breathing muscle relaxtion it only takes about 10 minutes and helps you really relax. If you also have sore shoulders and neck and some other anxiety sign i woukd bet that this is the issue best of luck to you

    Hunni I am dealing with the same thing in the same Breast its freaking me out 

    It just started but on the 6th I went to a specialist for the breast and everything was fine but now I'm starting to think could something have gone wrong after the exam 

    I know exactly what you are going thru 

    Just know that you are not alone

    Hi I have been having strange sensation/ache in my left breast for around a month. Started on hrt Elleste Solo 3 months ago but panicked and went to see my doc re left breast she gave me the all clear however I still ended up going to a breast consultant for my own piece of mind she again gave me the all clear. I have now stopped taking the hrt (1 week) ago and although my breast still feels strange I am putting it down to anxiety/menopause symptoms.

    i try to distract myself by keeping busy and think a lot of these feelings are down to anxiety as the more you think about things the worse they feel.

    yes, I have it often and by curiosity it is also on the left. Sometimes even it spreads when I breath making me top to taking breaths for some seconds. Its like knifing the breast all together as well. I do believe these are symptons of severe anxiety so please see the doctor. Nonetheless, it is nothing to worry itself. Only whats beneath it . I am practicing some psicodrama together with relaxation techniques (yoga, medititation, hipnose or regression did not work for me but are a very good way to go as well)
