Should I be concerned 'breast pain'

I'm still breastfeeding have been for several years non stop so not sure if that could be the cause?

Recently I've started getting a burning pain in my breast. Sometimes worse than others only in one breast. Also when I run sometimes that same breast has a stabbing pain. I've checked for lumps and under my arm down the side past my breast feels slightly swollen but I may be imagining this.

After reading what I've wrote I'm panicking a lot more about it. Anyone experienced something similar?

No help but following as i have recently started to get pain in mine and a sore armpit and suddenly my bras feel too tight and uncomfortable. Hope someone else can be more helpful.

See your GP for a checkup. Breast pain is very common and typically is NOT a symptom of breast cancer so try not to worry while you wait to see them.

I was always under the impression that anything super dangerous doesn't hurt (I'm sure not in all cases!) BUT- any changes to your breasts should be checked out by your GP- please go, explain symptoms and put your minds at rest.

Sending love. 💐
