Breast pain is a general term for a mostly chronic clinical process that continues to occur intermittently in many women until the patient goes through menopause.
Breast pain usually starts a week before menstruation and is characterized by breast swelling and pain that worsens with activity, but gradually disappears when menstruation occurs and returns with a vengeance in the next menstrual cycle! If there is no lump in the breast examination, this condition will disappear on its own in most cases in 2-3 years as long as you relax your body and mood.

Gently pushing the breast can make the excess body fluid back to the lymphatic system. When pushing, first apply soap solution to the breast, rotate your finger along the surface of the breast, about a coin-sized circle. Then use your hands to press the breasts in and then pop them up again, which is extremely beneficial in preventing breast discomfort.

In addition to preventing sagging breasts, the more important role of bras is to prevent further compression of the already compressed breast nerves and eliminate discomfort. Careful sisters will find that those joggers wearing a solid bra is the reason for this health care.

Diuretics do help discharge fluid from the body and also cut down on breast swelling. But this immediate relief comes at a cost. Excessive use of diuretics can lead to loss of potassium, disrupt the balance of electrolytes, and affect the formation of glucose.
5, do not eat salty
Foods high in salt tend to swell the breasts, and should be avoided especially for 7 to 10 days before menstruation.
6.Try hot compresses

Castor oil contains a substance that can enhance the function of T11 lymphocytes, which can accelerate the recovery of various infections and remove pain.

Apply this cloth to the breast, cover with a layer of plastic wrap, and then place a hot pack on it. Adjust the hot compress to a heat level you can tolerate and leave it on for an hour.
9.Take vitamins
You should eat a diet rich in vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin B complex foods. These vitamins help regulate the production of prostaglandin E. Also, eat less margarine, as the hydrogenated fat in it interferes with the body’s ability to convert essential fatty acids (from food) into Y-linoleic acid (GIA), which contributes to the formation of prostaglandin E and thus inhibits the production of prolactin.

Does caffeine cause breast discomfort? It has not been confirmed. However, according to medical research, many women with breast pain and other benign symptoms showed significant improvement in their symptoms after giving up caffeine. Therefore, you have to give up coffee completely, which means you have to die completely to soda, chocolate, ice cream, tea, and caffeine-containing painkillers.
