Specializes in Cardiology

Musculoskeletal: If the pain worsens wit movement of breasts then pain may be musculoskeletal and may be relieved with aleve (naproxen) or advil medication. If not related to movements then it could be concerning for cardiac pain which is rare though considering the pain is atypical for cardiac origin. But you should get checked by pcp at least. Also if there is family history of breast cancer, you should be examined.
