Hi Lolita

Pain is not usually the first sign of breast cancer. Lots of things can cause breast pain. If you are concerned, see your health care provider.

The only way to definitively diagnose cancer is by biopsy. Before a biopsy you would have a physical exam, mammogram, possible ultrasound or MRI depending on mammogram results.

Again, if you are concerned, see a medical professional. Thank you for writing and good luck to you.
