Non cyclic breast pain?

Since last March, I’ve been feeling this sharp pain on the side of my left breast, it comes and goes at random several times each month.

It’s been a year now (I’m 20) since I felt it and nothing has really changed. I thought it was breast cancer when I first got it because I tend to overthink everything. My anxiety still tells me it is.

I’ve been to several doctors who told me they don’t know what it was but I was fine. One of them suggested it could be pain from a back nerve, I never told any of them I had kyphosis that causes back and neck pain. Could this pain I feel in my breast be linked to my back pain at all?

    I can't say if your pain is related to your back. All I can say is I have also had pain like that and was scared it was cancer, so you're not alone in having that thought. It did eventually subside, but if you are worried you can request an ultrasound of your breast. It could help quell your fears.
