Hi, I have breast pain lately and my underarm area seems to be more sensitive. Could it be indication of some inflammation?

Hi, actually breast pain is more common among women then you can imagine. Some women are more sensitive before and during their menstrual period. It is said to be more frequent in younger, premenopausal women. About 10% of women experiences moderate to severe breast pain for a few days a month. But, if you can palpitate any nodes in your breasts these can be formed from inflamed lymphatic nodes or some other cystic structures. Rarely only pain is symptom of breast cancer.
