Abstract

Mastalgia (Breast Pain) is responsible for 60% to 70% of consultations in the daily routine of a mastologist’s office. It can be classified into cyclic and acyclic. The diagnosis is clinical. Mammography and ultrasound exams should be ordered according to the patient’s age and physical examination findings. Non-drug treatment with behavioral measures provides relief in 80% of patients. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and tamoxifen should be used in cases of severe symptoms.
