A member asked:
Benign fibroadenoma lump 3x2cm found on my left breast. am 22yrs old. is it necessary to excise it because i dont want to do a surgery & have a scar?

Breast lump: That is a fairly significant sized lesion. I am assuming a needle biopsy was performed to establish the diagnosis. While it most likely is benign - and never degenerate my recommendation would be to have it removed. Depending on where it is - an excision around the areola may hide the scar. Good luck
