Why Am I Experiencing Pain At The Center Of My Breasts ?
Hi, I have a 6 month old. Had her via scheduled c-section. No trauma. In case there is a relation. I have been having pain in/on my left pectoral muscle for the last 3 weeks I rubbed some A535-type lotion and it helped a little but there is still bruise-like pain. It hurts when I force to pick up baby or bend down or press on it with my fingers. No pain when I breath . I would say it does feel like there is a swelling there, but I am not sure if it s a bump or only the muscle I am feeling. It isn t under the breast it really is from the center of both breasts, on the left side of that. When I roll over in bed, it also hurts. Could I have pulled something due to repeated movements with baby all day?

Dear
welcome to healthcaremagic
The site of pectoral pain and stuffiness is at the heart and lung and the onset of the disease is related to liver, spleen and kidney. Either engorgement of milk in your breast too had made to pain in that region. Do you had recent accident and trauma..
if not nothing to worry
Thanks
