16 year old with lump on my breast?!


Question: 16 year old with lump on my breast!?
I found a lump on my breast, it's round firm, movable, about the size of a quarter, does not hurt, no discharge, and no discoloration!. My parents are going to be gone for a week (to my sister's graduation!.) I don't want them to freak out or anything and be worrying about me while they're gone so I don't want to tell my mom yet!. Do I have anything to be worried about!? Cancer doesn't run in our family!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
The breasts will get lumps right around the time of your period, a little before, during and a short time after!. That's why it's not a good idea to check for lumps right around that time!. Cysts are also common and be caused from a number of things!. I would just wait until your parents come back and if the lump is still there then go ahead and tell them and go see a doctor!. It's also best to be safe than sorry but I'm pretty sure that you're going to be okay!. I had a similar scare when I was in my early twenties and it turned out to be nothing and went away on it's own!. I hope that you feel better soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi, when I was 15 years old I had found a lump in my breast and right away thought it was cancer, but Mum took me to the Doctor the next day and he then sent me to a Specialist!.

The Specialist took the lump out and it turned out to be fine!.

So I would suggest that you see your Doctor as soon as possible and please do tell your parents!.

Honestly I doubt that you have cancer, but see your Doctor!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is quite possible that it is a cyst!. they are non cancerous!. If you consume a large amount of caffeine, it increases your chances of cysts in the breast!.
I would definitely get it checked out though!. A quick trip to the Dr!. for a 5 minute breast exam should ease your mind!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

maybe your drinking to much soda or coffee or something go to the dr and get checked tell your mom when she comes back home most likely not cancer had the same thing im 18 they said to much soda!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
