A member asked:

I've also noticed no changes to my health or any breast pain since this lump has appeared on my right breast. is this cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: Breast cancer only causes pain and feeling of ill health and pain when the cancer is advanced. If you have a lump in your breast, you need to have it checked out soon.
