Suggest Treatment For Severe Stabbing Pain In The Breast

My breast are large and I have pain sorta like being stabed with a hot knife and pulling the knife about 4 inches. It is so painful I cannot move but if I grab them and hold them the pain will subside as long as I hold them in one place and not move. would a breast reduction help this problem?

Hi.

It is not necessarily a breast size and structural problem but could be related to a hormonal cause. Make sure you wear a well fitted brassiere and also lose a little weight if you can. Breast reduction will only help if the ligaments holding the breast in place and so on are feeling the pressure due to the weight of the breasts. Speak to a gynecologist who can help you accordingly.

Best wishes.
