A member asked:

My breasts have been feeling uncomfortable for 2-3 days. what may be wrong with them?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: Depending on your age, the breast tissue changes with hormonal cycles and causes tenderness. Also fibrocystic disease can be tender from time to time in persons who are post menopausal. Rare but infections can occur that lead to tenderness especially if you are breast feeding.
