Specializes in Family Medicine

Doctor Visit: Breast lumps need exam and Mammography from Radiology. See your Doctor for these and use acetaminophen for the breast tenderness due to the lump. Likely a breast cyst. These are benign but can't be sure unless a biopsy of the breast reveals it is benign cyst. Don't delay see your Doctor today.
