i'm 5'8", and i wear a size zero or two in jeans. depending on the store, my bra size is a 32D, 32DD, or rarely a 34D. i heard that if your boobs are too big for your size/frame, you could get back problems when you're older. could this happen to me or am i a healthy size?
thanks for answering.

There is no size that will 'give you back problems'. If you have the right bra, your body can 'handle' just about any size. And 32DD is not so big. People have the wrong idea of what D's and DD's look like, which is why so many women never want to break that "barrier" and go into G, H, I, J etc size.
Here is actual, well fitted D's and DD's:

I do think you are in the wrong bra size, though. Size zero and a 32/34band just doesn't seem quite right. Did you know that many brands stock sizes down to 28, and more are working on making 26 or 24? You can even get those sizes already at ewa-michalak.pl .
Your band size should be close to your actual measurement under your bust (even proven by study at Portmouth University - who said it is even more important for D+ women)
For every band size you go down, to get the same cup volume, you should go up a cup size: So a 30DDD and a 28G has the same cup volume as a 32DD, it's just on a shorter band, giving you the support you probably need. Remeasure yourself (as it is very possible that in a too loose band, it can be harder to tell if the cup is too small too): http://xlhourglass.blogspot.dk/2012/07/how-to-find-your-bra-size.html

Go to a nice department store and get measured. They can give you a much better idea what size and style of bra you should be wearing, and how to find that size if it's an unusual one. DON'T worry about whether it's "obnoxious"- you should choose your bra size based on your boob size, nothing else. If a 32DD bra fits well and is comfortable then that's what mother nature wants you to wear, and hers is really the only opinion that matters here. You shouldn't have to be uncomfortable because you're worried about what other people will think.

Heyy. What's up? My name's Gwenivere, let me tell you a brief story about myself which I believe may be of some Hẹlp to you... Growing up, I was teased all throughout high-school. You know, I was that girl with the really small breasts that everyone liked to make fun of. I did not hit puberty until a little bit later on in my life. People used to say all kinds of mean things to me, refering to my breasts as "man-boobs", "mosquito bite titts", "flat-chested" ... it just went on and on. I even had one boyfriend that told me that he was ashamed to be seen with me in public. The ridicule never seemd to end. Because of this, I went through school being very self-conscious about my appearance and my ability to get boys to like me. Even after puberty, I never made it past an A cup.. so my negative self-image carried on into college. The emotional scars left by those mean girls (and boys) from HS never quite faded.
So, with that, I was determined to change my predicament. The thought of going through life feeling insecure about my body was unacceptable to me , especially during my college years. So what I did was a thorough, dedicated search. I scoured the web for answers. I spent several days and nights pouring through an endless amount of first-hand accounts and other personal experiences with various products and solutions. During this quest, I found precisely what I was seeking. It was a topical cream called "CurvyBust" @ https://curvybust.im .. The first bottle that they sent out was totally Frẹe, the only thing I had to do was pay for the S&H. This is the only reason I even tried it, normally I would be too skeptical to bother with something "too good to be true." All I can say is, unbelievable. I went up almost 2 cup sizes in just a matter of a couple months. You would not believe what this has done for my self-esteem and outlook on things. I almost feel like I have a new lease on life. There is nothing quite like feeling perfectly comfortable in your own skin again.
Take care! I hope you find the answers you are looking for <3

The whole back pain thing from breasts is a myth. What causes back pain is poor poster and wearing bra that don't work.
I'm a 36K no back pain.
