Avatar n tn Well, 1.5 years ago, I found a pea size lump under my arm. very near my armpit. It turned out to be IDC. Doc said the tumor is in the 'high-end' breast tissue because our breast tissue goes all the way under our arms. He said it's in an unusual place but technically it is still breast cancer. Please check with your doctor to be sure, that way you can sleep well at nights!
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 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 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 n tn Fibroglandular Breast Tissue is a combination of glands, milk ducts in the breast and the fibers that support the breast. Some women have more of this tissue than others. Breasts are usually made up of mostly adipose tissue (fatty tissue) but we are all different.
1330312 tn?1275341513 but it is the only option left as tht lump in my breast is still undiagnosed due to biopsy failling and i do think this is my best option left thank you for any comments.
Avatar f tn I found a pea like lump in my breast. I have been for a mammogram and a ultra sound scan. These both showed up clear. The doctor felt the lump and said it felt like fatty/normal breast tissue. She did a biopsy and will write to me with the results. What can it be? Nothing shown up on both scans, so I'm confused. There is definately a round hard lump there!
1204692 tn?1266588010 Inside each of my breast it feels like they are very lump and I can palpate a large lump in each one that feels the size of a small golf ball. The breast itself feels dense and very little fat, more lump. The ultrasound and mamo came back fine saying I had extremely dense breasts. After the mamo they called me the next day to return for another pic and they said they say a cyst, but then after they rechecked they said it was fine.
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!
Avatar n tn He also stated that I had dense breast tissue in my left breast, but not my right one. Please keep in mind that I have small breasts. My question is this: I've read that dense breast tissue can be a risk factor for breast cancer. Could it just be a coincidence that I have both a cyst and dense breast tissue only in the left breast? Thanks.
Avatar f tn Is it unsual to have different findings in one area of the breast tissue?.I am in confusion about what to do with the lump that is formig in the lateral breast.My next appointment is after 2 months.
Avatar n tn I visited my doctor the other day because a have what i thought was a boil under my breast. After examination he told me that i had a dense fiberous tissue in my left breast and immediately made an appoint with the surgical team in two weeks time. I have no pain the only thing that I have notice is that my one breast has got really big over the last few months. Can you explain why I cannot feel the fiberous tissue and why i have been refered to a surgical team.
Avatar f tn the ultrasound came back with no findings of a lump what so ever so my doctor says its just thick breast tissue and he wouldnt worry about it. to have a folloe up mammogram in 6 months. but i am still worried why wouldnt the ultrasound show anything but the mammogram did? and do i most likely have cancer and they just are letting it go? how long can one go with breast cancer before it is uncurable or too late? please someone help i am sooo scared!
1245359 tn?1268596667 Noncyclical breast pain does not seem to be linked to hormonal variations and is often localized to one area of the breast tissue. Noncyclical breast pain may or may not be the result of an injury to the breast. Over the internet without being able to evaluate including physical examination it is difficult to say what this is. If this continues to concern you, you should bring your symptoms to the attention of your doctor who can evaluate and put into perspective for you.
Avatar f tn Hi there, I have only limited information but have learned about axillary ectopic breast tissue, which I think is different than accessory breast. Mine was glandular tissue, not fat, so liposuction was not an option. Due to our hormones these things can continue to grow, I hear when you get pregnant they get huge and can come back even if you've had surgery. I had mine growing for 8 years (noticed it when I was 24) and was told similar things "Oh you don't want that big scar...
Avatar f tn Sometimes breast can feel lumpy without a distinct lump, what you are feeling for in a self breast exam is a new lump or in the case of usually lumpy feeling breasts, you are looking for changes. Follow up with your doctor who can evaluate these changes and recommend whether you should move up the appointment or leave it as it is.
Avatar f tn I have an axillary lump story also. back in march noticed lump in armpit, not sure if it was new or i was just finding it, also not sure if new lipoma since I have 4 other of those. So went to Dr to check it out.
