Noncyclical pain can have many causes, including injury to the breast, lumps, infection, cyst. The breast is mainly composed of fatty tissue (known as meda dhatu in Ayurveda), glandular tissue for milk production, and significant lymphatic drainage. From an Ayurvedic point of view, dosha constitution is the orchestrator behind physique, including breast type, for example - Vata people tend to have less meda dhatu and that means smaller breasts.
