Good afternoon everyone,
Hoping to get a little perspective on this because I'm sending myself barmy worrying about it.
My left breast is so painful, it's tender as if bruised and also have a burning sensation that's been waking me up at night.
12 days ago I banged the side of that breast quite badly in a swimming pool, I was swept along by a strong wave and collided with the metal steps. I did develop a small bruise which didn't really reflect how hard I banged it to be honest!
But I'm thinking this burning pain can't be connected almost 2 weeks later can it? Breast is also slightly enlarged and a bit swollen. There's no external redness or lumps that I can feel but the burning and soreness is really awful.
I'm convincing myself it's ibc or something equally horrendous. Looking for some advice, opinion or a handhold until I can get to docs tomorrow. I think even after that I'll have a long wait for scans etc if needed.
So scared. Feeling very vulnerable at the moment
