No matter what your age, a lump on your breast should always be checked out by a doctor. Breast cancer can occur at any age. Get to the doctor ASAP.

Not alarmed but cautious. Lumps appear on the breast more often than you might think. However, most are just fatty tissue and are harmless. You should not delay any visit to a Doctor who will arrange a follow up at the local Hospital to settle the matter once and for the time being.

Possibly. My mother had a lump at 36 and guess what! She's a survivor of breast cancer with both breasts removed. It doenst happen to all women with lumps under age 40 but its better safe then sorry.

Yes. Go have it checked out. Early detection is the most important thing. It might be nothing, but it could be cancer. Even a small lump of cancer can spread from the breast to the lymph nodes.

Yes you should be very alarmed. Breast cancer doesn't care if you are 20 or 60 so get it checked out.

Scary as heck! Get an exam. Could be benign if it's an unusual growth. Wish you the best.

If you're actually bleeding from the nipple, I can't understand why a doctor cannot find anything wrong. You need a mammogram, possibly an ultrasound. This is something not to ignore. Please seek another physician.

Yes, and get it examined, though the result may be mostly negative.
