Medical Conditions - Breast Pain

Breast pain is a sharp or throbbing pain in the breast. Fatty acid imbalance, large breasts, hormonal imbalances, underlying cysts, and certain hormonal medications can cause breast pain. Breast pain in males occurs due to a condition called gynecomastia. Identifying the cause helps the gynecologist decide on the treatment. Avoiding hormone therapy and following a low-fat diet can prevent causes of breast pain.
