Left breast pain

Recently, many female friends have reported that they have experienced stabbing pain on the left side of their breast in daily life, and the pain comes in waves. So, what is the reason for the stabbing pain in the lower left breast? Next, the editor will introduce these aspects to you in detail. Friends who are interested, please take a look.

What is the reason for the stabbing pain under the left breast?

1. Reasons:

1. Breast hyperplasia.

If the pain on the left side of the breast is pathological, and often begins before menstruation or worsens before menstruation, and can be relieved or disappeared after menstruation, the pain is distending or stabbing, and sometimes extends to the armpit or shoulder and back in the same direction, and some people have mild to moderate dull pain, then it is considered to be a hyperplastic space-occupying lesion.

2. Breast infection.

Generally speaking, if there is sudden, persistent, and relatively strong pain in the breast, and accompanied by obvious dull pain, it is considered to be various subacute infectious diseases of the breast; if there is throbbing pain in the part, it may be that the part has become purulent.

3. Cracked nipples.

If the nipples are extremely painful, crushed or cracked during breastfeeding, it may be that the baby sucks and bites the nipples, causing nipple dryness. If breast pain is only a slight dull pain or aching pain, the onset has no obvious periodicity, is only intermittent or paroxysmal, and sometimes is continuous, it is often ignored because the pain is not obvious. It should be noted that such breast pain may also be a signal of early breast malignancy and should be taken seriously.

4. Breast malignancy.

Sometimes, there is no obvious pain in the breast, but only pain in one armpit or behind the shoulder, which may be a malignant disease. These subtle changes should not be ignored. If there is strong, persistent, burning pain in the breast that is idiopathic and cannot be relieved on its own, and is accompanied by ulceration and death of some lumps or ulceration of the surgical wound and surrounding skin, it is breast pain in the late stage of malignant disease. At this time, the clinical symptoms of other malignant diseases are already very obvious, and it is not difficult to find the cause of the pain.

The above is the introduction in the article about "What is the reason for the stabbing pain in the lower side of the left breast". I believe everyone should have a certain understanding of this matter. In short, if you experience intermittent breast pain, you should neither panic nor be careless, thinking that breast pain is nothing unusual and it will go away if you just bear with it. Some women are more shy and feel that breast pain is too embarrassing to talk about and are too embarrassed to see a doctor. These are all wrong understandings. We should pay great attention to changes in the breast, even if it is very mild breast pain, because breast pain may be a symptom of many breast diseases or even a precursor to breast malignant tumors.
