A member asked:

Found hard lump in bottom of right breast,(grape size) its painful & hurts when touched,could it be cancer? (no other symptoms, breast looks normal)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breast Lump: All new breast lumps should be examined by a physician. They can be caused by many things - infection, cysts, cancer. Some patients may be feeling ribs or normal breast tissue when they are concerned with a lump. If a person finds a lump that is red or hot - it is more concerning for an infection and they should go to urgent care for evaluation, otherwise make appt with their PCP or GYN.
