what should I do?
My left breast is sore and has been for a few days now. Its only sore on the bottom and it feels like lumps. It bigger than the right. The right doesn't feel like the left.
Hi - This soreness could be from any number of causes; usually, soreness in one or both breasts is due to a hormonal issue. Or to fibrocystic change, which many women experience. There's a very rare form of breast cancer, inflammatory breast cancer, that can start as soreness in one breast - it usually progresses, fairly quickly, to what looks like an infection: your breast is swollen, red, hot, painful and sometimes itchy.
For now, keep your eye on it; if the soreness doesn't abate within a few weeks, then best to see a doctor about it. If it gets worse quickly, and seems infected - see a doctor to rule out IBC. As I said, though, this is probably hormonal. Good luck - PJH
