Stabbing heart/breast pain

7 replies

Over the last few days I've been getting this short sharp stabbing pain. It's just about my left breast by my armpit. If you look on a bra it's where the straps meet the cup. I was worried at first it was heart related but surely its too far over to the left.. It's almost in my armpit. It's not crushing or pressure just a short sharp stab that comes and goes. Could this be hormonal?

Could be? I'd keep an eye on it though and if it doesn't go away get it checked out

I get very bloated at certain times or the month and I find if I wear a tight bra it can give me stabbing pains. Went to the doctor about it and they did loads of tests and agreed it was from the bloating and tight bra. Get it checked it it doesn’t go away in a few days though just to be sure. Also check if similar pains return at the same sort of time next month

Keep an eye on it. Women's symptoms of heart attack are different from men's.

Well first I would get your bra checked that it fits properly.
