Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Mastalgia is a common problem for women. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of neuromuscular pathologies of the thorax wall at mastalgia ethiopathogenesis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Mastalgia is a common health problem for women especially these days. Studies demonstrated that 48% of the women with mastalgia have serious difficulties in their sexual life, 36% have physical activity difficulties, 13% have social activity difficulties and 6% have work or school activity difficulties. The etiology of the mastalgia is not clear. Because of the women with mastalgia tested out lots of examinations for the etiology. Also this problem has financial load because of the unknown etiology.
