Can a breast cancer lump change size?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It can: Dan - breast cancer can stay the same for a long period of time but eventually will grow or change its texture (become harder and non movable). Any lump should be checked out even if you don't think it is cancer. The key to breast cancer is early detection which greatly improves survival, so please if you have a lump go in for testing.

Usually.: Usually a breast cancer lump will grow, but certainly breast cancer lumps can stay the same size for a very long time.
