I am not sure exactly what happened but i am having pain in my right breast. I do not recall a specific injury that made me jump & say OUCH..but my husband may have been too rough with my breast because i noticed discomfort the next day. It has been 3 wks & my pain and the location of the pain has been all over the map..i have been taking ibuprofen..my PS says i may have torn my pocket. If so, how long does it take to heal? I feel so helpless & cant do anything that requires my using my chest
