Well, there is little I can do without being able to examine your girlfriend in person.  Breast development in a "normal" female is usually around age 11...so that means she was either quite a bit early or may have undergone precocious puberty.  Her breasts (depending on age) should have stopped growing at some point.  If they began to grow suddenly she might be pregnant.  As far as her areolar pain you will have to wait for the doctor to exam her.  Usually breast tenderness is a common side effect of a woman's cycle or again it could be puberty (depending on age).  If she has been giving herself regular breast self exams and recieved regular mammograms she should have nothing to worry about.  Of course with pain in the breast we might think cancer, but has she had any discharge (bloody,milky)?  Is the areola tender or does she feel a lump?  Is the nipple inverted (pushed in)?  All these questions will be asked by her doctor at the upcoming exam, but don't worry.  Most times in a young female we don't think cancer...usually we are thinking cyst which can be easily drained.

Well let's just say that you definately need to get a second opinion and/or change your doctor.Honestly who in there right mind would say that and then allow the woman to go home?Any doctor that does that is a Quack!\nMy doctor would have admitted me into the hospital to do all kinds of tests to find out exactally why this is.\nPlease go get a second opinion or better yet go to your local emergency room ASAP!

I can only advise you to have her seek medical advice.  It could be something very harmless, or else something much more serious (such as multiple sclerosis, or complications of diabetes).

You gave her some good information.  She needs to have some labs taken.  She shouldn't let the doc drop it like this.  She needs to see someone who will follow up with her care.  Best of luck!

No, usually pain in the breasts is not cancer. I had the same problem and it just cysts. You get cysts around the time of your period. If you are worried go see your obgyn.

Could be strep throat or just stress related. Take her to a practioner ASAP, as it also could be a serious earnose/throat infection.

Hi. I am a RN and and many things can contribute to swollen tender breasts...even a chest cold! Most people don't know that. Take a pregnancy test if that is a possibility. If negative then yes probably just hormones. I would lay down and put your hand on that side behind your head and feel your armpit region for swelling also. Sometimes your lymph nodes can get swollen. If they are then go to the doctor. Could be nothing, could be something. Too much caffeine can cause the lymph nodes to swell which in turn causes the breast to hurt. Start at step one and take it from there okay. Good Luck and feel better soon! Tender breasts hurt! Oh, Ibuprofen works great!

Please see your doctor.  He can find out what the problem is.  Your breasts should not be that sensitive that you can't stand clothing.

Absolutely.  Chest pains are nothing to fool with.  Go to the emergency room, better safe than sorry.  If it turns out to be serious, see an atty who specializes in medical malpractice.  Your doctor should never make jokes about anything you ask her about.

Please, don't put her health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect her mind and body. She must consult her doctor or a dermatologist. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)
