I’m a little bit concerned

About 2 years ago I found a lump in my breast at 17 and I was worried sick and I pushed and pushed to get it checked and I got told I had a fibroid in my right breast after my ultra sound scan. I get soreness around that area and tenderness but on the same side my arm pit hurts too and it feels abit bigger than my other arm pit... and I keep worrying myself so much more each time even though I got told it wasn't cancerous and was a fibroid... is it normal to have arm pit pain on the same side a fibroid in the breast is on?

  • Hello there, I had fibrous tissue removed and yes I had armpit pain as there is a lot of tissue in our breasts, my lumps went under my arm so they were removed as well.  When you lift your arms up you will see that the breast tissue goes under there as well.  If you are really worried call your GP and see if they can reassure you from a medical point of view.  Take care,  Carol x
