Common Questions and Answers about Lump behind right nipple
lump
A few days ago, i realised that my right nipple has a lump uder it. I dont know what could have cause it. im not sure but at first it was near the surface of my nipple, but now i think it sunk a little inside. If im not mistaken, when i first realised it, it was very small, now it is the size of my nipple, but i dont know if it will grow larger or not. It doest hurt very much when i pressed it, just a little discomfort.
Is this a symptom of cancer or what? Can anyone tell me. And im only 18.
I am a 50 year old male, I feel a hard lump behind my right nipple extending upwards above the nipple a little bit. Can men get breast cancer? If so, what's the difference from a cist compared to a cancerous lump? My lump doesn't hurt, but has a slight itch from time to time. I've had this lump for a little over 6 months now, it was smaller when I first found it. Could you please respond ? Thx for reading this.
Hi,
If you have no other symptoms like nipple discharge, skin changes in the breast or nipple area, any lump, any inversion of the nipple etc,I doubt that it could be a sign of breast cancer.This pain could be caused by hormonal changes.Try to avoid caffeine (chocolate coffee,colas) and see how it goes.If the pain still persists you will need to schedule an appointment and see your physician for a clinical evaluation.
Take care and best wishes...
had to be removed behind where the milk ducts were. Then again another MRI showed behind the nipple was another mass which had to be removed (same breast). So take every precaution and talk to your doctor about everything. Do not let anything go by, can't take chances with your Life. Good luck, I hope this helps. I have LCIS (left breast), DCIS (right breast), radio. and now Tamoifen along with alot of pain.
Back in January, I developed a lump under my right nipple. It was painful to the touch and the area felt swollen. I was examined by my doctor who told me it was probably mastitis, which is usually something that occurs with breastfeeding (I have no children). By this time, the lump & swelling had gone down and it wasn’t as painful.
Have a hard lump behind my right ear.
My daughter has a lump behind her right ear about the size of a dime. When I first notice the lump, it was smaller than a pencil eraser. There is some discomfort when the area is touched at times, and sometimes there is more swelling. She has complained with ear aches as well as headaches for 4+ months now and I have repeatedly taken her to the doctor. Ever visit, the doctor has said that her ear is healthy and normal.
the bump that hurts is not on the testicle, but seems attached by chords, veins. Now this lump behind the right testicle is also found behind the left, however the one behind the left does not hurt. The pain is on the right side. Again, dull pain in lump behind right testicle. the testicle itself does not hurt. any thoughts on what this could be. HHH could not think of something but i thought I'd ask a urologist for more advice.
Have had a lump behind right ear that seems to be increasing in size. Have noticed this for a couple of months.
Anyone have an experience with this sort of thing. My doctor won't refer me to an ENT wants to do a work up but won/t see me for a month. It might take another month for the ENT to see me . Should I just check into hospital?
The left nipple and areola are dark, but not as dark as the right nipple. The left nipple/areola also swells and then has watery yellowish discharge from the pores. (I really hope I am describing this correctly) The left nipple is sore to painful depending on where I am within my monthly cycle. The right nipple is always painful in areas where I have sensation. About 6 years ago I had a lump removed from my left breast (benign) with the incision along the areola line.
And it feels like i have something that is swollen inside my breast. It feels like a lump right behind my nipple and the entire left breast seems to feel tight with soreness sensation. I don't have any discharge, i am on a birth control (for about 12 years-never had a problem) and i just finished my period (about a week ago). So it's not hormonal and i didn't do anything abnormal. Should i be worried?
Tonight my 14 year old daughter informed me that she was having discomfort in her right breast behind the nipple. Only on the right side. There's an obvious lump under the nipple. She has already been having periods since 11 and I don't believe she's still going threw puberty. I'm so worried about this I can think straight! We have no insurance and I don't know where to start as far as seeking medial attention.
Hey everyone im a 16 year old teenage boy with a lump under my right nipple. honestly im very scared and just looking for answers please. i had the normal gynecomastia two years ago and it went away. now ive noticed the lump under my right nipple. ive recently been working out and im still going through puberty so could those factors contribute to why i have this lump maybe because of hormonal changes or what? please help.
So I am a 23 year old male. I noticed a lump behind my nipple about 3 weeks ago. It doesn't hurt at all. It is probably about 1.5 inches across. I went to the doctor today and he said I should get it checked out. I am getting a diagnostic mammogram and an ultrasound on Monday. (didn't even know guys could get mammograms) I have done a little research on male breast cancer. I am a bit worried because they say the lack of pain is one of the first symptoms.
Hi. That hard and painful lump under your right nipple may just be a breast bud, which is part of the normal changes which happen as your body begins to mature during puberty. There is a chance that the lump could be some sort of infection (cellulitis), so you may also want to have it checked by a doctor, just to be sure it's not anything serious.
She told me I have to have a ductalgram and then they are going to remove the ducts. My nipple started out with just white discharge then I found a lump by my nipple. After the appointment with the surgen my nipple started to bleed in the one spot. Then it started in another spot only it was clear with blood and my nipple is going inverted. I have been waiting for this ductalgram for about a month and don't know if I should start pushing a little harder to get this problem looked after.
Lumps during breastfeeding may be caused by blockage of ducts which carry the milk from deep in the breast to the nipple openings. Milk that builds up behind the blockage causes the lumps and makes the breast sore. Warm compress may help provide relief. Gently massage the lump toward the nipple during and after feeding and cold packs after a feed may help relieve pain and inflammation.
