HI
Thanks for posting your query.
Fibroadenosis shall not cause pain in breast or shoulder . Most likely you might have got an infection in your breast which is causing the pain .
Any infections in the breast will causes enlargement of Lymph nodes which are small nut sized structures present in the armpit. Due to their enlargement your are getting pain in the arm also .
I advice you to get yourself examined by a doctor and if need he shall start you on a course of antibiotics.
For the time being you can use hot compresses over it .
Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarifications feel free to ask.
