Single painful breast

I have breast pain in one breast, I’ve had it checked in the past twice, once I had a cyst and the other time nothing was found (April 2024) just a bit fatty but I was breastfeeding and they said it was likely to go once I stopped.
it does tend to go after I start my period but it’s so unbelievably tender and only in one breast. Should I get it check again?

feel like I’m falling apart at the moment honestly x

Breast pain when pre menstrual is normal even when uneven.
If the pain continues through the cycle and persists for a few weeks I'd get it checked.

I had bad mastitis 25 years ago I used to have issues with the breast. Consultant said there was calcification there and blocked areas.

i had mastitis in the exact same area where I have had both the cyst and now pain. Would have been 4 year ago now. I wonder if this could be a similar situation?
