A member asked:

Constant breast pain, didn't change for a few months occasional nipple discharge what can be wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mastalgia: Some women just get pain in the breasts without any known cause. You should have an evaluation by a doctor to make sure there are no cysts or fibrous areas that could be causing the problem. Ibuprofen can help and so can Evening Primrose Oil.
