I have a large chest. 36 D cup to be exact. I was wondering if that might be a factor in my neck and back pain? I don't think I can get breast reduction surgery so I am wondering what ways you large breasted gals cope?

Artchic528...I just wanted to drop in and let you know I read your post. I am a 32AAA so I can't speak from experience , but I do know from friends that a proper fitting bra is a must, even if you have to have it custom fitted and made just for you. It will be cheaper than surgery. Large breast can and do cause back/neck pain. You may want to check with your physician to see if you can somehow qualify for reduction surgery. There may be a loop hole you don't know about. Pain is a diagnosis that just might qualify you. Get a second and third opinion if you are denied at first, sometimes persistence pays off. Best wishes!!!!

I'm 36DD. I go see a chiropractor for neck pain - but I've also had a lot of little neck traumas along my life to add to it!

The better the bra fits the less pain as well.

36d is not big enough for reduction. My poor daughter is 30FF (if not more Thin with humongous boobs they look like large cantaloupes. Hard to find clothes. Button down blouses are out of the question. Looks like fake breasts. She can't even sleep without at least soft bra or it hurts.

I think she eventually might go reduction. I have huge breasts too but thin back which makes it hard lol but it doesn't hurt my back. I think sometimes the issue is bad bra, you need one that supports and holds up firmly. Buy at speciality stores. We buy at bravissimo in London. I don't buy bras in the US but may be buy in specialty stores. Department stores don't sell good bras
