Breast bumped

[Tara110]

I went out to a club at the weekend with a friend,once in the club it was hard to move with it been so full with people,myself and my friend both have large firm breasts,we were waiting to get a drink and I got pushed really hard into my friend and both our right breasts hit together hard,it didnt hurt our breasts but I would like to no if we should go and have them checked out ? I dont want to do this as it will be really embarrising telling who ever it may be that my right breast bashed into my friends right breast,we have had our breasts bumped and pushed together before but not as hard as they did this time,they went into each other full on like points to points,if anyone has had this happen to them any advice you have would be a great help. Thanks.

When I was in my late teens, I fell off of a bicycle and collided with a parked car... bumping my right breast pretty hard. I recommend applying a pack of crushed ice over the breast for a few days to mitigate the discomfort. But, I wouldn't worry too much about this sort of breast injury unless you have persistent pain for more than say, 1week... or, if there's any discharge, bruising and/ or excessive swelling because that might indicate an infection has set in. But, don't be embarrassed about seeing a doctor for this... breast injuries are more common than you'd think.

Take care, "i"

Shouldn't any issues get caught during a mammogram anyway? that should be once a year.. Whateve the problem may be, it shouldn't go unnoticed for more than a year.

It's good that nothing seems bruised or painful. Unless you develop a discharge, there's not likely anything a doctor can do at this point.  However, keep in mind that repeated trauma to breasts, even if they don't appear to injured or hurt, can certainly cause some breast health issues over the long term.  So, you should generally take care to minimize any breast trauma or situations that lead to such bumping.
