Why do I have pain on both sides of my chest?

Regular breast pain: It is related to the menstrual cycle and is a reflection of the regular changes in the body's growth hormone. This type of pain is normal to a large extent and mainly occurs in premenopausal women, especially before the age of 35. This condition is usually regular pain caused by breast hyperplasia.

Non-cyclical breast pain: Compared with regular breast pain, non-cyclical breast pain requires more attention. But non-cyclical breast pain also has mostly good causes. Its characteristics include intermittent occurrence, irregular pain intensity, mostly one-sided occurrence, and sharp characteristics. Patients need to pay attention to this situation. The real culprit of breast pain and stabbing pain is breast hyperplasia

Breast pain and tingling are mostly caused by breast diseases. Experts suggest that breast pain can alert breast hyperplasia. The main symptoms of breast hyperplasia are breast pain and breast lumps:

Breast pain: often characterized by swelling or stabbing pain, which may affect one or both breasts, and is more common on one side. The pain is severe and insurmountable, even affecting daily life and work. The pain is mainly in the breast lump, and may also radiate to the armpit, chest, flank, shoulder and back of the affected limb; some patients mainly experience nipple pain or itching. Breast pain often occurs or worsens a few days before menstruation and is significantly relieved or disappears after menstruation; the pain may also fluctuate with changes in mood.

This type of pain related to the physiological cycle and mental changes is the main feature of the clinical symptoms of hyperplasia of the breast.

Breast lumps: Lumps can be found in one or both breasts, alone or in multiples, often in the upper outer quadrant of the breast, but can also be found in other quadrants. The lumps can be in the form of flakes, lumps, strips, particles, etc., among which flakes are the most common. The lump has unclear boundaries, medium or slightly hard color, good mobility, no adhesion to surrounding tissues, and often causes dull pain. The lumps vary in size, with the smaller ones being as big as millet grains and the larger ones being more than 3 to 4 cm. Breast lumps also have the characteristic of changing with the menstrual cycle. The lumps become larger and harder before menstruation, and become smaller and looser after menarche.
