Hi, hope your ok. I'm currently experiencing this too, I did however get seen by a dr and he found a lump but he seems to think it's not of a concern but has referred me. My boob has a constant bruised type feeling to it and one area is really sore in particular where the lump is xx

Exactly the same as me! It doesn't really bother me unless I poke it or lean/put pressure on the side of my boob then I can feel it. I tried to forget about it thinking it was hormones but it doesn't matter where I am in my cycle it always feels bruised in the same place. I'm thinking it's most likely a cyst but thought it would be best to get checked out. Hope it all goes well for you!

I have this also. Mine is the lower right side of my breast, I have tiny boobs and the first thing I noticed is that the right boob looked like it was growing a bit as it was uncomfortable wearing a bra - but actually I think it's swelling or something. The bruised feeling is driving me mad and today the doctor confirmed there is a lump and I need referred . Such a worry, thinking of you both x

Hey please don't worry,

I have had this for years. I have been to my gp who referred me to the breast clinic twice as the second time the pain was a little intense from it and I couldn't even bare to wear a bra. 
 

my lump is smaller than 1cm and hard, feels like a small stone. It has been diagnosed as a cyst and if I track when it becomes painful, it is usually cycle related. I find it starts to hurt around the time I'm due on.

Consultant in the breast clinic said this is normal signs of a hormonal cyst. You can have them removed but mine is close to my nip so he said it would be painful and risk some bleeding so I never bothered x

Hi my left breast has a burning pain under my armpit and above that breast, infrequently pain shoots up to the left nipple. I was referred to hospital a few weeks ago and after a mammogram I was everything was normal. The pain and discomfort is draining and I don't know what to do about it seeing that the breast clinic said all was well.  It is NOT it is very sore and pain shoots up to that nipple infrequently. 

Hello, 

I'm experiencing the exact same thing as you, except it's on the inner part of my breast/rib. I would be curious to know what happened to the bruised sensation and if you sought any more medical advice? 
 

I am 28 years old and have been experiencing a bruised sort of feeling breast for about three or four months now. I went to my GP in October as I was growing increasingly concerned. Unfortunately, my mother passed away from breast cancer seven years ago (aged only 52) so there is obviously a close family link to the disease there.  At the doctors I was examined by two different women who said they didn't think they could feel anything too concerning but would refer me to the breast clinic anyway as I was so worried. Fast forward a month and I was at the breast clinic where I was examined again by a surgeon who said she also didn't think she could feel anything abnormal but would like me to have an ultrasound to confirm. On the ultrasound nothing but fibrous/dense breast tissue and prominent ribs showed up. Two weeks down the line and I can feel the bruised/tender feeling again and I'm feeling somewhat anxious. I'm convinced that there is a lump of some kind there as the right breast doesn't feel the same side as the left. At the clinic they only run the ultrasound over such a small area that I'm afraid they could have missed something important. 
 

I'm not one to go to the doctors/be paranoid about my health at all but for some reason I can't seem to let this go. I wouldn't have these symptoms for no reason. I'd be very grateful to you if you could let me know how you're doing now and what happened. I really hope you're doing well now. 
 

Thanks ever so much for your time,

Hi Sophie

Hope you are feeling better. I would go back to the Dr and ask them to check again, explain how anxious and worried its making you. As you wont fully relax until you are put at ease by Drs. 

I have a bruised feeling in my left breast which is new. I went to the Drs in October as I had a horrible pain behind my left nipple. The GP checked my breast and said she was satisfied with everything and sent me away.

I now have a bruised feeling in the same breast but on the left side of the breast close to my arm pit. The pain travels, I cant feel a lump, i went back to the GP this week. Although she couldnt feel a lump she's reffered me to the breast clinic. I have an appointment in 13 days to see a specialist as I ended up using my private health care through work, the NHS appointment would take until mid January and Im so worried.

I will see a specialist and receive a mammogram or xray to see whats there. Im hoping its nothing but I cant stop worrying about it and looking at every symptom onlin, I'm 35 but looking at menstrual symtoms, menopause, cysts etc and we have a long history of cancer in my family which just makes everything feel more intense. 

If you still worried please go back to the Dr and dont worry about feeling like you are bothering them. It's your health and your wellbeing of having it constantly on your mind that will really drain you.

Let me know how you get on. X
