Breast size has nothing to do with posture or back problems. If you're overweight or obese, that's probably a contributor.

Breast overgrowth disorders include simple breast hypertrophy and gigantomastia (rare) where each breast may have 5 lb of breast tissue. The origin can be in puberty/pregnancy/drug induced or unknown. Symptoms of neck or back pain is common. Breast reduction surgery performed as early as skeletal maturity in teens or at any point in adulthood can improve posture & function.
