What would sore nipples and sharp pain going through breast be?

Breast pain: One of the most common causes of breast pain is too much caffeine. Cut back slowly to avoid withdrawal headaches.

Fibrocystic changes: You could have fibrocystic changes. This is the most common cause of breast pain. It can be aggravated by caffeine, stress, menstrual cycle and hormonal supplements. If you are over 40, then you should have a mammogram and ultrasound. Please get evaluated by a breast specialist.
