Hey, i keep getting small shooting pains in my right breast, it doesn't happen very often but when it does it hurts like hell, these usually last for around 10 minutes at a time, any idea as to what it could be? Thank you

Hi - There are a lot of nerves in your breast; could be some kind of odd irritation. It doesn't sound like breast cancer; pain isn't usually one of the first symptoms. Please read our post on breast pain for information about whether/when to see a doctor about this. Good luck - PJH

One day last December I kept getting a sharp pain in my left breast. It only lasted seconds but happened 7 or 8 times. I was wearing my Saturday bra (no support) and figured that was it. Watching tv later that night I felt the pain. This time, since I was home, I touched where the pain had been and found the lump. And the biopsy found the cancer....early cancer. I respect breast pain now.
I hope your pain is groundless.
