What Could Be The Reason For Having Electric Shock Feeling Under Left Breast?

My wife, 28 years old, started feeling, as she describes it, an electric shock feeling under her left breast that she woke up to this morning. She explains that it has come and gone throughout the day. She is not overweight and is healthy. Any suggestions?

OBGYN,  's  Response
The most likely cause of this sensation is that she pulled a nerve due to stretching or trauma, either by bumping the breast or by stretching it through exercise or running. As long as it goes away on its own over a few days, there is probably nothing to worry about. However, if it persists or gets worse, or if she feels a lump or swelling in the area, she should call her doctor and have it checked out. I hope this helps answer your question, please let me know if you have any more questions.
