Pain above left nipple

Many women have experienced breast pain, because it is inevitable when the breasts are growing and developing, and it also occurs before menstruation. But sometimes breast pain may also be a symptom caused by breast disease, such as breast tumors. Breast cancer can also cause breast pain.

In fact, there are many reasons that lead to breast discomfort, some of which may be physiological and some may be pathological. This is also related to the patient's age. Let's talk about it from the following aspects:

First, girls' breast development usually starts between the ages of 9 and 12. Parents don't need to worry too much if they have breast discomfort at this time. This is breast pain during puberty, and it will disappear on its own after menarche.

Second, many female friends may experience breast pain before their period, and the pain is so severe that they cannot be touched. However, this condition is generally caused by the increase in estrogen levels in the body before menstruation, which stimulates breast tissue. The symptoms may ease or disappear after menstruation.

Third, some female friends may also experience swelling and pain during pregnancy or after childbirth due to the influence of various hormones;

Fourth, breast discomfort and pain are also directly related to breast diseases. If you have frequent or irregular breast pain, you need to pay attention to it. Some patients may have local breast pain, some may have swelling and pain in the entire breast, and some may have nodules. This situation is abnormal and needs to be examined and treated as soon as possible.

Whether the specific condition is physiological or pathological and whether it requires treatment needs to be determined based on the comprehensive condition. It is recommended that female friends stay up late as little as possible; do not put too much pressure on yourself, adjust your mental state appropriately, and avoid being in a depressed and tense state for a long time.
