As soon as she opened her eyes each morning, Jane Clarke would reach for the bottle of pain-killers on her bedside table. She needed them just to get through the day.

Before they took effect, even the most basic tasks, such as walking down the drive to collect her post, caused her shoulders and neck to ache. And even though she topped up her medication every few hours, agonising pain was a constant feature of her life.

It would be easy to assume that Jane, 64, a GPs wife who runs a hat hire business, was afflicted with a chronic disease. But the truth is rather more surprising. For Janes suffering was caused by part of her own anatomy: her ample breasts.

Many women, like Jane, suffer pain from having naturally large breasts

And shes not alone its a problem afflicting increasing numbers of women. In the Fifties, the average cup size was a B, but now its risen to a C. In the past three years, the number of D-cups and above sold by Marks & Spencer has doubled, accounting for a quarter of all bra sales.

In response to customer demand, its range for the bigger-busted woman, which used to end with a G-cup, now goes up to aJ. Lingerie company Bravissimo has even introduced K-cup bras, while Rigby & Peller, the Queens favoured underwear supplier, has gone so far as to launch an eye-watering N-cup bra, the largest ever made in Britain.

The consequences of women having such large chests can be devastating, ranging from crippling back, neck and arm pain, to headaches, friction rash and even curvature of the spine.
