Have Pain In Breast When Lifting, Pushing Or Pulling Anything. Done Mammogram
I have pain in my breast whenever u push pull or lift anything. Sleeping certain ways also causes it to hurt. I've had a mammogram and it was fine. Sometimes I'm just sitting still and I can feel sharp pain. My Dr. Said I pulled a muscle from over exercising & gave me RX which worked. RX mAde pain go away but now it's back with everything i do. Any ideas what I may be experiencing?

HI, I can think of Vitamin D deffisiensy as a cause of the pain in chest on exertion. Vit D & Calcium when are deffesient, make the ribs weaker, & any pull/push ocuring with contraction of inter costal muscles create stress & pain in under lying rib . - You can get it confirmed by blood check up - Once deffisiensy is confirmed, instead of pain killers you should go for calcium & vitamin D supplements. - Physical exercises for chest muscles help by improving chest muscles as well as chest bones. Thanks.
