A member asked:
If i have a breast lump that is painful, should i go to urgent care or to my primary physcian?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Primary: An urgent care will not be able to do much for you and your primary care doc will want to help you figure this out. On the lighter side, pain is not usually cancer.
