A member asked:

Pain in the right side of left breast that takes my breath away. happens at least once a day. any ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe a cracked rib: or inflammation of the breast (mastitis) which could come from infection. If the pain is continuous it is likely to be an infection, esp with redness/swelling and other signs. If pain only comes in certain position/ motion, then it is likely a rib or rib muscle injury. If it persists, see a family physician for proper diagnosis and treatment.
