I am a healthy 25 year old woman. However,
for atleast the past 3 years I have been
having the worst pains imaginable in my
left breast. When the weather is cold I
will get a sharp cold burning stabbing
pain through my left nipple. The left side
of my left breast near the armpit will
also be extremely sensitive to touch. The
pain is so intense and unbearable that my
gyno has prescribed me 500mg of
hydrocodone. I've been to the doctor
several times about it but nothing ever
comes from it. She first thought it was
fibrocystic breast tissue. So she changed
my birth control to a diurectic. Nothing
changed. I've had sonograms but there is
no lump. There is no pattern to the pain
either. It has nothing to do with my
hormones.
I'm pretty much lost. My father, who is in
the medical field, believes it to be nerve
related. When I read about nerve pain, it
hit my symptoms to a tee.
Has anyone else ever experienced this? I
can't seem to find anything on the
internet about it.

I have never heard of such a thing, no,
but your father is probably right. Ask
your gyno or PCP for a referral.

Cold weather breast pain Posted: 02-07-08 22:23pm
6 months ago I had a breast lift and
implants replaced. Now whenever I get cold
I get a sharp, unbearble pain in my
nipples and my breasts become terribly
tender. The only solution is a long hot
bath. It doesn't even have to be that cold
- 55-degrees. What is it?

Well, I too have extreme stabbing sharp
breast pain at my nipple area periodically
throughout each and every day. Weather is
not a factor for me. I also have cyst.
fib. and have had two lumps removed, but
from right breast.
The only thing I can say is that it's
hurts and really is uncomfortable and some
days are worse than others. If anyone has
a suggestion to help figure out what the
heck it is let me know.

Stabbing Breast Pain Posted: 10-06-08 00:37am
I have been having this pain for about a
month off and on and weather is not a
issue. I just get stabbing pain in my
left breast from the side under my armpit
area to my nipple area. It shoots a
stabbing sensination. I am worried but I
am not pregnant, have no lumps and no
matter how I am, sitting, standing and or
laying down it still hurts. Today I
continue to have it most of the day.
