Question

Answer 1

if it's your period, sometimes its normal because of the fibrocystic thing then goes away. many lumps are areas of normal breast tissue which can become more prominent just before your period.its better to have them checked. it might need some examination especially when painful. most lumps are not cancer but its better to be sure and detected early.

Answer 2

Small Lumps Around Nipple

Answer 3

There's a name for that, but I forgot what it's called. It's been a long time since I took human biology, but it's perfectly normal.

However, if anything around the nipple area becomes discolored , bleeds or a lump increases in size, see a doctor.

Answer 4

They're perfectly normal. Most women have them. Some more prominent than others but nothing to worry about. Do not obsess over these little lumps and do not worry; no need.

Answer 5

If they are little white bumps, they are normal. But I'd go to the doctor if I were you.

Answer 6

Perfectly normal. They are called Bartholomew's glands.

Answer 7

if you mean little goose pimple bumps like you get on your arms or legs thats totally normal. esp if it's more than 1, there is almost no chance this is serious.

Answer 8

if you just had a baby maybe you are engorged full of milk and need to pump it out if not go to the doctor

Answer 9

I have them, too, and get my annual breast exam every year and the doc never says nothing. I actually never asked, but I assume since shes never said anything theres nothing to worry about. But if your worried, it doesnt hurt to get that breast exam

Answer 10

the commonest lump in both young and old women is cystic. have them checked to make sure its nothing serious.
