Hi all,
So my left breast has been sore, like an achy burning sensation, for around 3 weeks now. That pain is around the left side of my breast and slightly under my armpit. Now and then I get a sharp pain and if it’s banged it’s excruciating.
I can’t feel a lump but I can feel the point where it’s sore, if you know what I mean.
Also noticed a small dimple yesterday which has gotten just slightly more noticeable today.
I’m 30, had 2 kids, smoker, light drinker, healthy ish eater and get plenty of exercise running round after a 1 year old!
Hi porcha,
Get yourself to the doctor to get it checked out. Any changes in your breasts should be looked into for your own peace of mind.
Your age is on your side and most breast cancers don’t produce pain, so stay positive, but it’s important not to ignore any changes.
Book a GP appointment as soon as you can. Let us know how you get on. Love Mel. xx

Thank you for your replies, I’ve booked a doctor’s appointment for Tuesday.
Never been so nervous to go to the doctors! I know it’s probably nothing but it doesn’t stop the worry
Doctors yesterday and he thinks it’s an infection so I’m on antibiotics and an anti inflammatory.
I’m happy it seems to be nothing, fingers crossed the medicine works 
Thank you.
I’m 5 days into the week course but I’m still in quite a bit of pain 
I hope the next 2 days will help as I’m pretty much scared s***less now!
Hi. The antibiotics I got weren’t effective, I am now on broad spectrum ones.
2 days in and the pain is worse, I almost passed out earlier
Hopefully a couple more days on these should help
