I feel my chest swelling and a little pain recently

Many women have recently experienced a feeling of breast swelling and pain. There are many reasons for this swelling and pain. Some are caused by physiological factors, while others may be caused by illness. Don't be too nervous when it occurs. The key is to figure out your problem and only when you find the cause can you solve it accordingly. Let’s take a closer look at the main factors that may be causing your breasts to swell and feel a bit painful recently.

2. Premenstrual breast pain: Many women experience breast fullness, hardness, and tenderness before menstruation. In severe cases, the breasts will become swollen and painful with the slightest vibration or collision.

This is caused by increased estrogen levels in the body before menstruation, breast hyperplasia, and edema of breast tissue. The above changes may disappear after menstruation.

3. Breast pain during pregnancy: Some women experience breast pain when they are about 40 days pregnant due to the placenta and villi secreting large amounts of estrogen, progesterone and prolactin, which causes the breasts to enlarge and the pain can last throughout the pregnancy.

5. Breast pain after abortion: This is because the pregnancy is suddenly interrupted, and the hormone level in the body drops suddenly, causing the newly developed breasts to suddenly stop growing, resulting in breast lumps and breast pain.

Women do not need to worry about this at all, but if the swelling and pain do not ease for a long time, or even become more severe, or if when touching the breast, you find a lump with unevenness, unclear edges, and poor mobility, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible.
