Compared with cyclical mastalgia, this condition tends to occur in older women, with an average age of 43 years old.
Symptoms vary according to the pathology as pain may arise from part of the chest wall, be referred from elsewhere or arise diffusely within the breast.
In cases where the pain appears to be truly arising from the breast, it may be possible to find localised areas of tenderness and such areas may act as triggers, causing pain elsewhere in the breast.
