What Causes Pain And Sensitivity In The Left Breast?
My 13 year old daughter began having pain and sensitivity in her left breast about 6 days ago. She came to me and told me about the pain. I did an exam and felt a lump / knot on the left side of her left breast. I have made her an appointment with my ob/gyn but it will be 2 weeks before he can see her. What can I do for her to help ease the pain she is having? What can I tell her - medically to help ease her emotional distress?

Hi.... by what you say I feel that this could be a adenoma of the breast, which is a very simple issue and may settle by itself also. The other possibility is that it could be a fibrous tissue in the breast.
As of now, for pain relief you can give Ibuprofen in the dose of 400mg thrice daily. But this is a prescription drug and you will require a doctor's prescription for it.
