breast pain after sterilisation

[adozenroses]

I have a question about my breast. I have been suffering pain for a few months now and I would say it is getting worse.

Anyway, I got the depo injection over a month ago, so wasn't sure if this could have made my breast feel worse. I am not having this injection anymore and was sterilised on Thursday. Now I have tummy pains (which is expected) but the pain in my breat feels really bad now. It is so uncomfortable under my arm - right in the armpit area. Also the pain is at the front of breast area, just next to my arm (the bit where your arm and chest touch - if that makes sense!!) This feels tougher than the other side. I had my dh feel it in case I was looking for something wrong, and he said it felt tougher than the other side.

What should I do? Is this anything to do with being sterilised or should I get it checked?

Thanks in advance for the info!!

Sterilisation will make no difference to breast pain. Is your period due? Second getting it checked out.

Since having the depo injection I have been on a period since then really. The pain was getting worse then so I assumed it was that injection causing it.

I am in a lot of pain now though, so wasn't sure if it was the sterilisation causing it now.

probaby somthing as simple as a blocked duct.

Depo injection will still have effects for another couple of months - perhaps it is that.
