Is it possible to get breast cancer from getting kicked?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Breast Cancer: Blunt force trauma to the breast does not cause breast cancer but may cause bleeding that produces a hematoma. This may feel like a large lump in the breast. Drainage of a hematoma may be necessary so see your doctor!

No evidence: Supports any causal relationship. But fat necrosis as a result of trauma can mimic breast cancer (and the other way around too) on clinical and imaging exams. Best to show to a doctor if you are not sure.
