What Does Thickening Feel Like??? Posted: 02-09-06 15:05pm
Hi,
i am 33 years old. For the last 2 months,
i've felt a minor pain (like a stitch) in
my left breast, or it could be in my pec?
It's beside my armpit/upper breast.
I had a clinical breast exam and my doc
said she felt nothing wrong, no lumps or
fibrocystic changes at all, lymph nodes
not swollen.
I don't know what this little pain is?
If I feel around too much, I can make it
worse and then for a few days, i'll notice
the whole area and my ribs feels
tender.
Now, in that same breast , the lower area,
it feels like a thickening but i'm not
sure.
Its like a large rubbery area that moves
back and forth. Maybe this is normal
breast tissue?
Breasts seem to have areas of
thickening.
So, what kind of thickening should we be
concerned about? Does anyone know??
