Hi 

How did you get on with the burning issue in your breast? as i have now started experiencing the same thing, in the same place in the right breast.

It is making me very anxious. 

Many thanks  

Hi there, I posted the post directly above your back in June. I attended the breast clinic and had a mammogram and an ultrasound. Before those I saw a breast surgeon who examined my breast and  assured me staraight away that it was all hormone related. Even though I'd spent a week ' googling' which led me to be convinced I had something serious. Because I'm 62 I didnt even realise ( further confirmed  by Dr Google) that I could even get hormone fluctuations as I'm way past the menopause. So it just shows you how we can make ourselves ill with worry. Please try not to worry, the consultant says pain is not a common symptom of breast cancer, you'd more likely have other visual symptoms too. 
I hope this helps

Hey everyone

I had been having left breast discomfort just before my period for around three months but it always went away once my period arrived. Same thing happened this month but I was so fed up I examined it this time and discovered quite a large lump. I had had a routine mammogram a few months before but Panic still set in and I got an appointment with my GP straight away. She was certain in was a cyst and referred me to the breast clinic. Between my GP appt and the clinic, my family all tested positive for covid and I had to wait four weeks in the end before getting to the clinic. They were through longest four weeks of my life. I had a burning sensation/pain in my breast, armpit and my side/back where my bra stamp sits and convinced I had something sinister. It turns out it was a cyst. I had an examination, an ultrasound and the doctor drained it there and then too. The lump has gone but the burning sensation/pains are still there. I asked the doc if the cyst could cause them and he replied no, its hormonal. I was given the all clear but still a bit concerned as to why the burning etc is still there...very distracting! I'm 42 and putting it down to Peri menopause. 

I will contact her again to see if she can prescribe something but i wanted to share so some one can maybe  get a little piece of mind from my experience.

I hope you all get good news too.

Hi Pepper

only this week my daughter has had exactly the same thing as me and the breast clinic also diagnosed as it being due to hormones. The breast consultant had advised she takes Evening primrose oil capsules for the burning type pain. I hope this helps and you get relief from the pain soon.
