A member asked:

Why inner side of my left breast hurts when i laugh?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breast or rib cage: It could be something in your breast or rib cage or intercostal, muscles or something else. You should see your gyn for an exam as you may need a mammogram or chest x-ray or other testing.
