Hi all,

I am a 32 year old mom of two. For the past 3 weeks I have pain in my left breast. I felt a sharp stabbing pain when my 2 year tried to snuggle with me and his head hit my left boob. The first few days of pain I didn’t feel anything but a few days later I felt what feels like a tender lump or just tissue. I also feel heaviness and pain in my left arm. I want to Add that my breasts have Been nodular especially after I stopped breastfeeding. I went to see my gp who thinks this a cyst because it is moveable but has advised US and mammogram anyway. I want to think positive but the pain is making me paranoid and depressed. I would appreciate if anyone can. Share if they’ve had similar symptoms and what was their diag
