What causes pain and swelling in the left breast?

Patient's question:

Recently, my left breast has been swollen and painful, and it hurts a bit when touched a few times. What could be the reason? Previously, when I had sex with my boyfriend, he squeezed a bit forcefully, but there was no pain at the time. Could it be related to that? Or do I have some kind of illness?

Doctor's answer:

Before staying in the same room with my boyfriend, he forcefully squeezed my breasts. At that time, there was no recurrence of pain. Recently, I've been experiencing pain and tenderness in my left breast, and even a few touches cause pain. This situation is likely related to the previous abuse of my breasts. Local cold compresses can be applied to improve local blood circulation, which is beneficial for stabilizing symptoms. It's recommended to see a doctor and consider taking some antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Pay attention to dietary habits, eat more vegetables and easily digestible foods, enhance physical fitness, and increase resistance.
