Worry over breast pain

30 year old female when I was 27 I had a lump in my breast that was a fibroid years have passed with no pain or any problems until the last 2 weeks when what started as a pain (ache in the left side of my breast is now an on off ache just under the nipple. I have felt for lumps & cannot find any however my breast are quite big & dense which makes it difficult to be sure ,the breast seems to ache more after poking /prodding around when I look. 
I wanted to see if it would go away before booking a dr visit however it hasn't with expectation of 3 days & today I've had the ache return has anyone else had this ?  

It's also worth mentioning I do not have periods due to a coil & have not been recently pregnant or breastfeeding 

  • Hello CLH1991, 

    I think if it hasn't gone away, it would be worth seeing the doctor and mentioning all this to them. Don't hesitate to mention to the doctor that the ache has returned and that you do not have periods and haven't been pregnant or breastfeeding. 

    I hope you will hear from others here who have been in a similar position and that they will be along shortly to share their experience with you. 

    Best of luck for your appointment and best wishes,
