Suggest Cause And Remedy For Lump On The Left Breast
Hi, I am 34yrs old. I have a hard pea size lump on my left breast which is toward the middle rather than the outer side, (I would call it 11 o clock if 3 o clock were toward my left side). It feels farely close to the surface but deeper than a cystic pimple does. The skin over it is slightly darker (pinker) than the rest. I have no history of lumps, no breast cancer history in my family, no children & I finished my last period three days ago. Do you have any thoughts on this?

hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon with regards to your concern. it may be any of the following benign breast lesions: cystic, fibroids or fibrocystic changes. other tumor types, such as malignancy, must also be ruled-out. clinical evaluation is best. diagnostics (such as breast ultrasound and/or mammography, tissue biopsy) may be recommended. management (medical and/or surgical) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
