Part of my ex-husband's OB/GYN practice is treating referred pain.  In
addition to looking for sources of pain in the breast, I would try  looking
at the area on the mom's back that the pain shoots into.  Massage it and try
to see if there is a trigger point, which will shoot pain into the breast if
pushed on.  If so, try to massage it out, apply heat and/or ice, or even
consider lidocaine injections into the area (preferably with a 30g needle,
but no larger than 27g).  Even if there is not a trigger which will actually
shoot pain into the breast, I would try treating the area, and see what
happens.

Good luck!
Darillyn
