My partner’s breasts are really big and she isn’t a very big person. I have heard that this can cause back problems later in life. Is this true? Is there anything that can be done about it?

Yes, very large breasts can cause back pain and it isn’t always later in life. If this is causing a great deal of pain she should talk to a doctor about this. Some women in this situation choose to have breast reduction surgery. If surgery isn’t an option, there are exercises that can help. A doctor will be able to provide more information on this.
