Breast reduction: This is really the only option. If you want your insurance to cover this be patient as this may be a long process. Sometimes weight loss may help decrease the size of the breasts to help this problem and usually is recommended prior to surgery if person is overweight.

Breast reduction: This is the number one reason patients give for seeking breast reduction surgery and, fortunately, is accepted by most insurance companies as a valid source of medical necessity for the surgery. The best course is usually to begin with your primary care doctor and enlist his help in documenting the source of your pain and the lack of success (if this is true!) of physical therapy, bras, etc.
