trixie- there are number of possibilities for that. it really depends on the symptoms. a simple lump when left untreated can lead to breast cancer. so be watchful!

breast cancer is a malignant tumor that starts from cells of the breast. most breast lumps are not cancerous but still, some may need to be sampled and viewed under a microscope to prove they are not cancer.

i have breast lumps on both breast.it doesn't hurt though but the thought of it growing bigger each month makes me feel worried.worst thing is, i think i had another small one on my left breast just about under my armpit.is this dangerous?

i don't know if it's dangerous or not since it's not painful.
but i think you should have it check before it's too late.

you won't get harm if you have it checked but you will get harmed if you won't or maybe worst.
the choice is your's.

thanks ladies, i'll surely follow your advices. i'll make an appointments to see my doctor next week and i'll keep you updated.
