A member asked:

What does a breast lump feel like? noticed raised movable circle abt 2 fingers wide. feels like other tissue just raised. during ovulation

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get medical checkup: Most breast lumps can be felt as harder tumors but you need to use the flat part of your fingers rolled over the area of concern. If you feel a distinct MASS/LUMP , WHICH IS HARDER THAN REST OF your breast, then you should get it checked by your doctor for the sake of confirmation.
