A member asked:

A painful lump in lower side of breast?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See doctor: Any lump in the breast needs to be examined and if needed subject to study by imagining and may be by biopsy. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor.
