Pain in one breast? Any advice

i randomly started having pain on my right breast. It goes away and comes back at random. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not. My period was about a week and a half ago so I don't think that's why it hurts. I have no history of breast cancer in my family and I've also read that pain isn't usually one of the symptoms. I noticed a random streak in my bra on the right side and I'm not sure where it came from. I would like some advice on what it can be before I make an appointment to get checked out. I don't really want to think it's something serious since I am18 years old. I find this really odd for it to happen. I usually get breast pain around my period days. So what do you think of this. Thanks.

that must have been horrible. i didn't pick anything it just randomly started hurting pretty bad for about two days and it worried me since it never happened before.

Yeah that is good.  When I was a teen I picked something on my right breast and made it bleed.   A few days later I awoke in extreme pain.  It was red and tight looking.   Turns out I caused an infection.   That's why I asked.

it wasn't blood. i have no idea where it came from it was just there and it hasn't happened since then. and i have checked them and i don't see any differences they still look the same which is a good thing.

Was it a streak of blood?  Try looking at them in the mirror and see if u notice a difference in the right one; size, color, texture of skin (like tighter skin or dimples)

I'm not sure if the problem is my bra. I never really had any issues with them. So far the pain has gone down for now so that's good.

Could it be your bra maybe?
Some women have one boob bigger than the other, and a bra can cause discomfort on one side.
