Common Questions and Answers about Lump in breast of teenager

lump

Avatar m tn A lump that is getting larger could be a lymph node, a cyst, a lipoma or an abscess deep within. In males chances of breast cancer are less but should not be ignored. Ideally you should consult a surgeon for your son. However you can go to the PCP and maybe get a CT scan for the lump followed by a surgeon’s appointment. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar n tn Yesterday my right boob area was really sore, so this morning in the shower I checked for a lump and I found a lump right under my right nipple about the size of a 10c piece it's quite sore. I am only 14 so I am just wondering if it is my boobs growing or developing, but breast cancer does run in the family, so I showed my mum and she is taking me to the doctors tomorrow but I don't know what to do and it is quite scary! Please help me out!
Avatar f tn I have had problems with benign lumps since I was a teenager and it presented itself again in 2006 in my left breast, well now after a mammorgram I have one in my RIGHT breast..."breathe." I feel like I am losing it slowly but surely and I don't want my palps to come back like they were at the height of my anxiety. They have calmed down considerably and I am so thankful for that; but I feel like as soon as I get over one health issue another one arises.
532907 tn?1213473120 sorry I didnt answer the question all the way lol, I guess there really isnt anymore symptoms, its just really painful, and I am just worried. Theres no throwing up or anything like that.
Avatar n tn i found a hard painfull lump in my breast 2day.its in the side of my left breast and it feels like the lump is inside my breast.
Avatar n tn I am 20 years old and have had an ultrasound about 5 years ago which determined I have a non-cancerous lump in my left breast. I will admit I used to try and pump small bits of milk out of it when I was younger out of curiosity (very rarely), and little to nothing would come out. Maybe the lump is a result of this? Today it feels like I have 2 cysts instead of just one, I'm looking into having another ultrasound when I can finally afford it... What is inside a cyst?
Avatar f tn I'm 19 weeks pregnant and found a lump in my breast.. It's about the size of a bb and really hard had husband feel and he says he can feel it move a little but I can't it feels very fixed to one spot! Any other pregnant moms have this! I'm so scared!
Avatar f tn On the other hand, if the lump is very large then a FNAC could have missed something that in other parts of the lump that the needle didn't penetrate. I would probably trust my doctor and his/her judgement about your lump. Maybe someone else here has a different view.
Avatar n tn Dr. Found a lump in the right breast he said that he felt that it had grown a little bit. and wanted to get it out. He also said it was moveable. I am 50 years old. Can there be cancer in the lump is that how it starts and then attaches it self.
Avatar f tn I had a lump in my right breast, then I went to a surgeon he felt the lump and drained some fluids from the lump,then told me he was going to remove it that day which was in mar 2010 now its may 2010 and the same lump is back and in the same spot. the only thing the surgeon said was the biopsy did not show cancer. so my question is how could this return again and the same spot. I am 35 years old.
Avatar n tn I dont want to scare you but definately go get it checked out. I had a lump under my arm, got a breast exam which there was no BREAST lump felt. Less than a year later I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. Yours is probably NOT cancer but just to be safe dont put it off as the lump under my arm was not hard either. Cancerous breast lumps are whats hard not armpit nodes. Good luck to you I know you are fine but just go to the doc and get some peace of mind.
Avatar f tn Hi It's unlikely that the lump in your breast is cancerous.However it's really not very wise of you to have had this lump in your breast for over 3 years without having it checked out by a medical professional who could have ordered an Ultrasound and maybe more tests (if needed) and put your mind at ease. This lump could very well be a fibroadenoma (benign growth) but I urge you to see your doctor for evaluation,since no one can tell you for sure what it could be.
Avatar m tn Hi love138, I would get that lump in your breast checked as soon as possible by your family doctor. I had a lump a number of years ago which my doctor found through a routine examination. My doctor gave me a referral to a surgeon who specialized in breast cancer surgery. Luckily, my lump turned out to be a cyst. Time is of the essence. You need to make sure the lump is benign not malignant. Don't want to scare you, but these sort of things must be seen to quickly. I wish you well.
Avatar f tn I am 8 1/2 months pregnant and noticed a small hard lump in my left breast about 2 months ago (underneath my areola towards the very bottom) it almost felt like a bb, firm, immobile, and was smooth shaped. I had my OB look at it/feel it and she said that she didn't find it concerning as their are tons of changes going on with my breasts because I'm pregnant. She ordered me to have a ultrasound of it but I'm unAble to get in for 3 weeks!
900105 tn?1241939323 and I doubt that they are related. It could be the type of lump that is related to homonal levels in the body. In any event I would suggest that you make an appointment with you Dr. for a clinical breast exam and possibly an Ultrasound to determine the nature of the breast lump. Anything new or different involving the breasts should NEVER be overlooked for any reason. Regards ...
Avatar f tn I'm 21 years old, I just finished my period like a week or so ago. I've noticed that my right breast pains when I'm pressing on it. The pain can be pinpointed and it feels as if a part of the breast itself hurts. The upper outer part. I don't really feel a lump but then again I'm not quite sure because I'm not sure how a breast lump is supposed to feel like. So what this could be? I don't suffer from any other symptom. It's just the pain that's bothering me.
Avatar f tn i had 3-4 i-pills 3 years back and i think that can be one of the reason for such changes in the breast. i want to know whether i should have the lump removed or let it stay as it is noncancerous. i had evion for a month and after completing tlone month course, the pain disappeared. some suggest me not to have it operated but i am confused. please respond.
Avatar f tn I will be 22 in 3 weeks and I recently found a lump in my left breast above my nipple, I called my doctor and had an appointment 2 days later, he sent me to have an ultrasound done, it came back and he said my "lump" is 3.8 centimeters an something about " echo" and " float", and that there is no liquid inside my lump, my app was June 26, my doc said to keep eye on it and if it he's bigger to call him for another app before my 6 week breast check up.
Avatar f tn It is not bad, just enough for me to notice. I also noticed that there is a lump in the middle of my armpit. My L armpit does not have this. Could this just be a swollen lymph node?
Avatar m tn I am glad you feel reassured,but as you well know,real reassurance could only come from your doctor and not over the internet. You don't state your age,but if you are a teenager,then it could also be a condition called "gynecomastia"caused by hormonal imbalance.This condition could cause firm breast tissue or a lump under the areola.. However if the hard lump still persist,after a week or two,I think it's best to call your doctor for an examination and treatment if necessary.
Avatar m tn Risk factors for the development of male breast cancer include increased exposure to estrogen, reduced androgen, history of orchitis secondary to mumps, undescended testis, testicular injury or cirrhosis of the liver, and a family history of breast cancer. I would suggest you have yourself seen by your doctor. The tender lump you are experiencing in your areola could be caused by a localized infection or an abscess. Good luck.
Avatar f tn She also said it feels like she has padding laying on the top of her breast. Also, her breast have changed in size. Her right breast ( the side with the lump ) looks as if it has shrunk. It is atleast a size and a half smaller. I noticed right away. I am a very protective husband. I guess what I am wanting to know is, should I be concerned?
Avatar n tn The most obvious symptom in males would be a palpable or visible lump in the breast tissue. As a rule male breast cancer appears in the later years but anything is possible. If you have noticed a lump (no matter how small) please make an appointment with preferably a Breast Specialist for an exam and possible Mammogram. Regards ...
Avatar m tn Im 23 and I have a lump in my breast and its been there for over 3 years. Its been the same size but sometimes it seems like it shrinks.. It seems to be moveable and I only feel achy or dullness in the spot where the lump is or where it moves. Around when my period starts it seems to become worse but lessens when my period is over. The lump seems to have a ridge like texture I dont know can this be a cyst? Im scared to get it checked out (im a worry wart indeed) but i know i have too .
7729616 tn?1393795492 Hi I am a 29yr old girl. I have had a lump in my breast for about a month which has not been that painful, but over the past day or so I have another lump appear next to it and is very sore. It has been too sore when I lie in bed when the mattress presses into it and I am now considering seeing a doctor about this. I have had a past history of blocked milk ducts through a mammogram and biopsy but these tend to occur around about my period.
Avatar m tn im 23 and I have a lump in 1 of my breast..its been there for maybe 5 years or more and it hurts sometimes only in the spot where the lump is..around my period it seems to feel like pins and needles I guess and it feels a bit tender and my breast in general seem more tender. the lump hasn't gotten bigger and its seems to be moveable and hurts w/e spot it moves..could this be a cyst? also the arm where my breast is at seems to feel prickly like pins and needles sometimes..
