A member asked:
My mom is 42 and we found a lump on the underside of her breast... should we worry?????

Most: are benign, but sometimes there is a cancer. Get the lump evaluated by your physician. Your mom will likely need a mammogram and breast ultrasound. The need for biopsy will depend on the results of the physical exam and imaging studies.
