What Causes Lump Formation And Calcification In Breast?

I had a stereotatic breast biopsy done and developed a huge lump on the top of my breast, the biopsy was done on the opposite side of the breast. What is this lump about the size of a small egg and painful to touch? The stereotatic biopsy was done because I had about 8 calcifications. Also, do you know what causes breast calcifications?

Hi,

As you have undergone SBB already, you might be knowing the biopsy results. Breast calcification is not something common. It's related to some conditions like benign breast cyst with may later turn necrosed and gets calcified. Another condition in with breast calcification may occur in breast cancer. You need to evaluate it properly and may need to visit a gynecologic oncologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
