If their is a lump on your breast, is it sore?

Usually not.  Lumps are usually painless.  Try gently massaging the breast all over. Check for the size of the lump, and consult a physician if any serious irregularities persist.

any lump should raise a concern.. pain.. not usually to have big concerns but get it checked out thats for sure. Would you rather go to the doctor for an hour or suffer like my mom for 12 years of pain for the wrong decision. The sooner the better the life chance if need be.. but no worries as far as the description.. but get seen.. life should be lived.. not wasted.

not being i a position to know whether you might have been injured in the testicle or to examine it, I cannot say exactly what it might be. Hoiwever, when dealing with lumps or swellings in such a sensitive area one should tend to consult their doctor and have it examined. While it may be nothign serious, it might cuase you even more pain or discomfort in the future. So forget your embarassment and go get a doctor to examine it.

Generally, breast lumps which are hard, have an irregular border and surface, and are tethered either to the skin or the underlying muscle are cancerous.\n\nBreast lumps which are smooth, well defined and mobile, tend to be cysts or fibroadenomas, which are not cancerous.\n\nIf you have a lump in your breast, the best thing you can do is see your doctor. They will do an examination and may be able to reassure you that the lump is nothing to worry about, or they may refer you for more tests to rule out a malignancy. Even if it does turn out to be a cancer, the treatments for breast cancer are very good now, especially if you catch the cancer at an early stage, so go sooner rather than later.

I know my sister has a disease where she gets hard lumps in her breast, they're sort of like cysts. She has to go to the doctor now and then to get them popped (sick I know). If it isnt that it very well could be breast cancer. You should definately go to your doctor.

It can be if you are too ruff. The breasts themselves usually no it's not painful, but when you try to nibble or pinch yes it does hurt. So as long as your gentle then you should be OK, but every girl has there own sensitivity when it comes to that area.

I think you should tell your parents and consult a doctor. This is not to scare you but rather just to be on the safe side. :)\n\nYou are 13 years old and a lot of hormonal changes happen at that age. But if those bumps are bothering you, it would be much better to have it checked. Breast cancer can affect many women, even in their teens. But sometimes, some bumps and lumps are not cancerous but still have to be chekced by a doctor in order to know. And since you have such a strong family history of cancer, I suggest you have them checked out. It would be better to be safe.\n\nWell, I hope everything turns out fine for you. Take care and try not to stress about it too much. :)

They might be hurting because you haven't been using them enough. Talk to your doctor about the lumps--that could be something serious!

I get a lump every period time (a cyst)and my doc says it from caffine intake or something hormaonal, check with your doc its real easy for them to tell if its a cyst.  Also if you have "larger" breasts sometimes the tissue is denser and it feels like a whole lot of lumps al over. thats ok too

A small percent of the cancer are not detected by mammogram or ultrasound.  Since your doctor can feel it, it needs to be biopsied.  It can be cancer but it can also be other benign things such as a fibroadenoma or cyst.\n\nGood luck

There may not be an early warning signs.  As it grows it can produce symptoms such as a lump or thickening in the breast or underarm, change in size or shape of the breast, nipple discharge or nipple turning inward, redness or scaling of the skin or nipple, and ridges or pitting of the breast skin.  If you experience these symptoms, it doesn't necessarily mean you have breast cancer, but you need to be examined by a doctor.

A fibroadenoma is a benign breast tumour (not cancerous). The doctor may give you a local anaesthetic, and then use a fine needle to draw cells from the lump. It will sting for a couple of minutes. This biopsy sample will then be sent t a lab to be tested to make sure it is benign and the lump can then be removed. You may also have an ultrasound or a mammogram. See this site for great info. Good luck!!\nhttp://www.breastcancercare.org.uk/content.php?page_id=160

The first sign of breast cancer is often a painless lump. However, early breast cancer is often found on a mammogram before a lump can be felt. \n\nOther symptoms of breast cancer may not appear until the cancer is more advanced. These include:\n\nA thickening in the breast or armpit. \nA change in the size or shape of the breast. \nChanges in the skin of the breast, such as a dimple or skin that looks like orange peel. \nA change in the nipple, such as scaling of the skin, a nipple that turns in, or discharge or bleeding. \nA change in the color or feel of the skin around the nipple (areola).

Wow!  Can't believe a lactation center would say they never heard ot it!  Often, a lump in a breast feeding mother's breast is due to milk-filled cysts or a blocked milk duct.  However, a lump should still always be checked out immediately.\n\nEven though she is nursing, she can have an ultrasound which will show the status of the cyst without any side effects to her or her milk.

not really but you definately need to get checked if there becomes an open sore.  A friend of mine got that and it eneded up a huge infection and lost her nipple.  Im not trying to scare you but it could be serious.

you can but it's probaly unlikely\nLumps can be caused by extra tissue if your rbeasts aren't done developing. If you have the same size lump in each breast that's probably waht it is \ntbhey can also be benign cysts\nyou also get lumps before and during your period..\nif you are nervous talk to a gyno or your parentrs
