Make sure your doctor addresses it tomorrow. The "lump" can be anything from a blocked milk duct to cancer.
Signs that suggest a lump is less likely to be cancerous:
The lump is soft
The lump is discrete; it is easily distinguishable
The lump moves in the breast
There are multiple breast lumps
There is an identical lump in the opposite breast
The lump disappears after the menstrual cycle
Signs that suggest a lump is more likely to be cancerous:
The lump is firm and hard
The lump is not discrete; it is not easily distinguishable
The lump is fixed in the breast; it does not move
There is only one lump
There is not an identical lump in the opposite breast
The skin of breast is dimpled
The lump is accompanied by bloody nipple discharge

No thank you to tell without greater suitable information. An incompetent wellbeing practitioner will enable a affected person to pick any treatment it is not malpractice. a efficient one will provide her the recommendations which would be ultimate for her case. A neighbor of mine has survived two decades after a mastectomy so a ways - which truly ability that she now has as lots possibility of death of breast maximum cancers as every physique else along with her genes and her environmental historic previous. Breast maximum cancers isn't a loss of existence sentence - this is treatable.

I think making a doc's app. was probably the best thing for you to do. I would probably be worried too. Dont worry though the doctors know what they are doing and they would be best to help you with this i think. Prayers and God Bless.

I had a lump once, had it removed, turned out to just be a lipoma, just a fatty tumor, totally benign and not a problem. If it is not hard like a little bebe under the skin, it is probably just a lipoma.
