A member asked:

Small bruise like mark came up on lower left breast, should i be concerned? i am only 32 so i have never had a mammogram. thank you.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No concern: Ca of breast is a palpable lesion If detected early when no lesion present, micro Ca++ may be defined on mammo. Bruise like mark on skin doesnt represent a lesion. Possibly caused by mild trauma. At 32 breast too dense to get mammo and tissue too sensitive to x-ray. If physical neg. on monthly basis wait until age 35 for first mammo. Check to make sure bruise goes away and doesn't progress
