A member asked:
I had an ultrasound on my right breast under the nipple i can feel the lump but it's not painful. does this mean there's a higher chance it's cancer ?

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor to ascertain if the lesion needs to be biopsied or removed for examination by a pathologist.
