What To Do For Burning Sensation And Soreness In Left Breast, Pain On Nipple And Around It?

For about a week my left breast feels almost like it is on fire. I will start my cycle in a few days and I normally hae soreness due to it, but this is something I've never felt before. It's been going on for about a week. It's worse at night and it has a throbbing pain on the nipple and around it. Sometimes it throbs so bad it feel numb. I'm on birth control and have been on the same kind for about four years. I'm 26. Please help!

Hi
Breast tenderness or soreness is usual for the days just before periods.It can be due to premenstrual syndrome or fibrocystic disease of breast.Its a benign condition.But better you should have a breast examination by gynecologist to rule out the problem.Usually hormonal birth control pill gives relief for the condition.You should have a low fat diet avoid coffee and chocolate especially during the late phase of your cycle.Better to get enough exercise also.hope this may help you.
thanks
