Q: bruising under right breast
asked by: newton on September 5th, 2008

For about a week nowI've been getting a bruise type feeling under my right breast. I have a dog and in the mornings he gets very excited trying to give kisses. Thing is he jumps all over me and has even bruised my eye once. I cant remember if he had jumped on me before getting this pain. Im wondering if this pain is to do with cancer or by a very excited dog, bruising a rib.

When i lie down it hurts the most, i have small breast and i have checked for lumps and found one or two but believe them to be natural lumps in a breast. I have always been too worried to check them myself on a regular basis and get my partner to do this.

looking for anyone that has been in a similar situation to give me some advise.

You certainly could be bruised from your affectionate pooch. Have you partner palpate your breast and tell you if it feels any different. I suggest you start doing monthly breast exams on yourself. You will get to know the feel of your breasts and will know if there is a change. If your pain persists you may want to go to the doctor just in case.

I went to see the nurse as i couldnt get to see my doctor and at first she just told me it could be the breast wall being bruised but than when i told her i felt some lumps that would hurt when i press on it she than booked me to see my doctor asap as joint app with her. Although i will soon see the doctor i was wondering if anyone knows much about the breast wall?
