What causes pain under the breast?

Many women have problems with their breasts. Due to the development of today's society and excessive pressure, many women suffer from breast diseases. Therefore, the treatment of breast diseases is a very serious problem now. So why do many people experience pain under the breasts? Let's ask an expert to introduce this issue.

Secondly, breast pain in women is often caused by physiological changes at different times, which is medically called "physiological breast pain". The following are common types:

1. Breast pain during adolescence: The earliest breast pain in girls usually occurs between the ages of 9 and 13. First, the nipple swells, and a pea-sized lump appears in the breast tissue under the nipple, which is slightly swollen and painful. After menarche, it will disappear on its own as the breasts mature.

2. Breast tenderness during pregnancy: Some women experience breast tenderness around 40 days after pregnancy due to the placental villi secreting large amounts of estrogen, progesterone and prolactin, which causes breast hyperplasia and breast enlargement. In severe cases, breast tenderness may last throughout the pregnancy.

3. Postpartum breast pain: 3 to 7 days after delivery, the breasts may often become swollen, hard, and painful. This is mainly caused by breast lymph retention, venous congestion, interstitial edema and obstructed mammary ducts.

4. Breast pain after abortion: This is due to the sudden interruption of pregnancy, which causes a sharp drop in hormone levels in the body, causing the newly developed mammary glands to suddenly stop growing, resulting in breast lumps and breast pain.

5. Breast pain after sexual intercourse: This is related to the physiological changes in the breasts during sexual intercourse. People with sexual indifference or disharmonious sex life cannot achieve sexual satisfaction, and the congestion and swelling of the breasts are not easy to subside, or they subside incompletely. Continuous congestion can cause breast pain.

The above is the expert's opinion on this issue. Treatment according to the above methods can avoid other breast problems that affect the patient's health. In particular, patients must have regular check-ups to ensure that the patient's condition can be well controlled and avoid worsening of the patient's condition.
