painful left breast

Im a 25 yr old female and have been suffering with a really painful left breast, it is tender and i get bad stabbing pains in it. I have looked for lumps but both breasts feel quite lumpy anyway so i think that is normal (prob the tissue) i get a really bad shoulder and arm ache and also discomfort under the arm  in left side as well. the pain is daily and paracetomal are not helping. some times its like a tingly pain. I have been to refered to the breast clinic but have got to wait for an app. no history of breast cancer in my family.

does anyone else suffer with this or have any advise?

thanks

Your description doesn't make me think of anything in particular related to the breast. When you mention "tingly pain" I think of something nerve related since you also mentioned some involvement of the arm and shoulder. If there is no solution when you visit the Breast Clinic I suggest that you see a Neurologist for some investigation concerning a pinched nerve ..... just a thought.   Regards ....
