Extra mammary breast pain

Worrywart24
Offline

Hello

I have posted before about ongoing feeling/sensation in my breast. Over eight months ago I twisted awkwardly and felt a tear or pull at the side of my breast. I have since had a mammogram which was fine.i am now wondering if maybe this is all coming from my chest wall. I have been seeing a physio which seems to help but the feeling always comes back.

I therefore was wondering if anyone has or knows if you can have chest wall soreness for this long.

The whole thing is really starting to get to me know and causing me a lot of worry.

Many thanks for reading

  • I'm sorry about the soreness you've been experiencing and for the worry it's causing Worrywart24.

    Unfortunately no-one on the forum can give you the answers you're seeking but as this is playing on your mind it may be best to get back in touch with your doctor to discuss your concerns.

    Thank you for your reply. I have spoken to my doctor but at the moment it has been an associate physician. They have prescribed different medications and referred me to physio. Due to covid physio has been phone call only. I have seen private physio about seven times.

    I have also been to breast clinic and all was fine. 

    I understand that nobody can diagnose on this forum, I just wondered if anyone had suffered with muscle pain in the breast for maybe 9 months or do. 

    Thank you again
