  • Summary

  • Breast pain affects around 70% of women at some point in their lives and is a common reason for referral to breast clinics. It is often a cause of anxiety for women who may be concerned that their pain might be associated with breast cancer. In this episode, Dr Kate Chesterman discusses the assessment of the patient presenting with breast pain and explains the lack of association between breast cancer and breast pain in those with a normal clinical examination. She considers cyclical, non-cyclical and extra-mammary pain and discusses the causes and management options for these, as well as considering when referral to secondary care would be appropriate.
