Can stretching cause breast pain?

ks ago I was doing some stretching and after that I noticed that a part of my lower left breast hurts when touched. I did not pay attention to it at first but until now it still doesn't go away. I am also nearing my period so I am thinking maybe it's just PMS but why is it only on that part and when I touched it, it feels like a sore breast tissue or fat or whatever you call it, as I have no idea what a breast cyst feels like. I am kinda scared and I hope it goes away when my perios starts. Could it be just a coincidence that I did the stretching when I'm nearing my period and so the breast pain? I am concerned because it's just a particular part of the lower area and it just hurts when I touch it or I raise my hand (by the way, I think I overstretched my left arm when I was doing the stretching and after that I felt the pain). I hope it's nothing serious and I am just overthinking 😭

    Hi @iriiina, There are many causes of breast pain and over stretching along with hormonal changes are two of them. If it’s not a medical emergency waiting for two weeks to see if it improves makes sense. If it’s not getting better you should seek medical help to determine the cause.All the best.
