Breast pain is often a manifestation of benign disease and is not a reliable manifestation of breast cancer. It may occur at rest or with exercise and may be aggravated by palpation. The pain may be unilateral or bilateral, periodic or intermittent or constant, dull or sharp. It may be due to skin cuts, contusions, inflammation of the papilla or ducts, or tumor infiltration of nerve terminals or inflammation stimulating sensory nerve terminals. The pain may radiate to the back, arms, and sometimes to the neck. Breast tenderness in women can occur before menstruation or during pregnancy. Common conditions that can cause breast pain include: breast hyperplasia, breast cysts, mastitis, dilated ducts, and breast accumulation. Breast cancer rarely causes pain, except in specific types of breast cancer or when the tumor has ruptured. Among these diseases, when it comes to breast enlargement is the most common. Mammary hyperplasia is the proliferation of breast epithelial and fibrous tissues, structural degenerative lesions of the ducts and lobules of the breast tissue and the growth of progressive connective tissues, which are mainly due to endocrine hormone imbalance. It is most common in women between the ages of 25 and 45. Triggers A variety of factors can contribute to the development and aggravation of breast hyperplasia, such as tension, excitement, anxiety, depression, depression, and so on. Clinical manifestations Breast hyperplasia has different characteristics in different age groups. Unmarried women, married women without children and women who have not breastfed yet, the main symptom is breast swelling and pain, which may involve both sides at the same time, but one side is more important. Before menstruation, breast swelling and pain is obvious, after menstruation, it will be reduced and gradually stop, before the next menstruation, the pain reappears, the whole breast has a diffuse nodular sensation, accompanied by tenderness. 35 years old and later women’s main symptom is the breast lumps, breast pain and tenderness is milder, and has nothing to do with menstrual cycle. When touching the breasts with hands, one can feel different sizes, flat round or irregular shaped, tender nodules with unclear boundaries, no adhesion with the skin and deep tissues, which can be pushed. 45 years old and onwards, it is often manifested as a single or multiple scattered cystic lumps, with clear boundaries, mostly accompanied by a dull pain, distension, or a burning sensation. Cystic lesions are more prominent in postmenopausal women with atrophied breast glands. The severity of breast pain has no correlation with the presence or absence of nodules and their extent, and the pain can be dispersed to the axilla and the back of the shoulder. A small number of patients may have nipple discharge. As the cause of the disease comes from the body’s endocrine dysfunction, so in addition to breast symptoms may also appear irregular menstruation, bad temper, love of anxiety, love of anger, love of sweating and other symptoms.
