A member asked:

My 11 year old daughter has developed a bump under her nipple, which is slightly swollen and hard as well. she says that it is sore to touch and lie on. is it something to be concerned about given her age?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: The most common cause of a centralized bump under a nipple at 11yo is a breast bud.It can happen on one side before the other & be uncomfortable as stretch fibers respond to the rapid growth. Clothing rubbing over it can cause tingling or discomfort. Her doc can confirm this at a visit but I would bring it up if you go in for something else, not schedule a visit for something so predictable.
