Answer 1

Its best to see your doctor as soon as possible, most of the time everything is OK. but to be on the safe side see your doctor right away. Whatever you do don't delay it go as soon as possible

Answer 2

its worth getting checked asap my friend had found a small lump and hadnt got it checked for 3 years and when she did they had to remove her whole breast because it was starting to spread seriously go to ur gp tomorrow morning first thing they'll be able to tell u there and then if it needs further investigation but i wouldn't panic just yet

Answer 3

i just went to my doctors about 2 weeks ago for a well-woman && i asked if lumps are normal my doctor said YES. they're are common with women, it's usually just tissue thats in a mass

it may be just tissue thats lumped together ?

go to your doctors just in case =]

Answer 4

Answer 5

You shouldn't worry, However you should NOT mess around with having it checked. Get your booty to the Dr. asap, so you will know for sure what it is and how to best deal with it. Procrastinating will only make things more complicated for you, if it turns out to be an issue. The earlier the better. Plus lumps and bumps can be very normal and then again they can be something else. Best to be sure right?

Answer 6

I am sure your GP will send you to a Breast clinic where they provide you with an answer, usually on the same day.
