lump in my breast

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..

Again, I am faced with the decision whether to remove the lump that has increased in size OR wait until my current menstrual cycle ends to repeat the ultrasound. If I remove the lump, would the surgery deform my breast? My mom removed her fibroadenoma lump back in January 2013 and she said it deformed her lump, Also, how long would the recovery take and what limitations would I have during the recovery? What would you do? Wait until my current cycle is over and do another ultrasound?

I am a 24 year old man. i'm having a lump in my left chest around the nipple. It's been about 2 months. The lump is not visible but can be felt on touching and it pains on touching too... I'm really worried about this and please reply immediately...

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...

Im a 21 year old female and have just recently felt a lump in my breast. Its about the size of a grape and it dosnt cause any pain when you touch it.

Hi. I'm 26 and am 30 weeks pregnant. I have extreme soreness on the right side of my breast near my armpit. It doesn't necessarily hurt unless I touch it, or if my arm brushes against it and laying on it slightly hurts. So, I've of coarse avoided lying on that side or touching it. When I touch it, it feels like a sore muscle would with a slight stabbing pain. My breast does appear slightly puffy where the pain is, but no discoloration.

It is a reasonably solid lump and is behind my nipple (or maybe a bit higher) at the back of my breast., and it moves around when I touch it. I thought maybe because I just got a new bra this might have had something to do with it (believe it or not I have just been wearing a training bra! This is my first ‘real’ bra.) Or it could be a total coincidence. Please could you tell me what you think this might be? Thanks very much for you time. Tioni, age 16.

I was examined by my gyn in december to see how the cysts he found in july were like. I had three, one had disappeared, the other two the same. Since december, I have gain about 7 lbs , stress, and now I can feel the lump and it hurts. Before I just felt some pain when I pushed but did not really felt the lump. Can the cyste become cancerous? Do cancer lumps hurt? I dont know if it grew and now is hurting , has to do that I am about to have my period.

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?

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.

So I found a lump in my breast. I am 30+4. Not sure what to think. It's not painful to touch so it can't be a blocked milk duct. I see my ob on Monday. Just worried.

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.

and have been operated 8 years ago in my left breast and surgeons took out the fibre ball that was there in my left breast successfully. But, since then I am having irritation in the stitiches as well as on the nipple area. Now, the irritation has increased a lot and has caused redness and lumpful skin on the area of stiches. Can someone please help me whether it is a cause of any serious problem or a symptom of Breast Cancer or something liket that ?

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 .

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.

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.

hey i am 19 yrs. old and have been observing a lump in my breast from atleast past 2-3 yrs. it is kind of stable in size and dos not pain at all....

I have a lump in my breast ( ibelieve it may be a cyst an hormornal imbalance b/c its movable and hurts or feels tender around my period) which im going to the doctor soon to get checked out but also on the same side as the lump on my breast i feel a prickly feeling in my back(sometimes i feel a bit of tightness)..can this be due to the lump?

its always been pretty sensitive, but i have lost some weight and the bones are a little more noticble and hav ebecame sore. especially on my left side at the top right above my breast. my dr actually had me go for a breat ultrasound to make sure it wasnt a lump and it wasnt. it worries me cause i dont know what it is some say it culd be a bone spur since ive had my chest sawed open three times and its sore bad some and the sometimes i dont even notice it.

I had a lump in my breast, was seen the same day I found it and it was determined it was a fluid filled cyst that they drained. Turned out to be an infection. However, years later I didn't have a lump but calcium deposits that required a biopsy. Thank goodness, no cancer. But in both cases--- I had a doctor take things seriously and tell me their opinion. So, what does your doctor say?

She ordered me to have a ultrasound of it but I'm unAble to get in for 3 weeks!
