A member asked:
Should i be concerened about pain in my large breasts from a pulled ligament?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: While there are so called "cooper's ligaments" in the breast, they are not true ligaments (tendon like tissue between two bones). More likely is a strained pectoralis major or minor muscle or rib pain. Try Ibuprofen (if not allergic or other medical reasons not to take) for a few days. If not better, see your doctor.
