A member asked:
I had a stereotactic breast biopsy about 2 weeks ago. since then i have about a 3" rectangle hard spot from the incision to my breast nipple. is this something to be concerned about and if not, how can i get rid of it?

This can be sue to inflammation from the biopsy. If so, it will slowly go away on its own. If it is getting more painful, becomes more red, or if it does not resolve or gets worse, then see the doctor who did the procedure. Best of luck to you!
