I would head to your doctor and have them take a biopsy- that's the only way to know for sure. Wishing you the best of luck <3

That sounds like a good plan. If it gets any larger or begins to hurt without you touching it, I would suggest going to the nearest ER just to be safe

I'm a Stage 3a breast cancer survivor and suggest you start with mammography/ultrasound. They can see the shape of the lump and are very good at determining how to proceed. I had multiple tumors that no one could feel, and the irregular shapes set off alarms. My breasts were not painful but they sometimes itched. A round lump is generally a fluid filled cyst.

Hello, If it were me I'd get into see my gyno. ASAP, this is nothing to take lightly, it may just be a sist but best to find out. If you do not have a gyno. how about your MD, or go to the local Emergency Room. I wish you well, let us know how you fair. I send you healing health and Love Sprinkle 1

Breasts can be sensitive and give non cancerous simple cysts just during your menstrual cycles. I don’t have them anymore but mine would get so sore and bumpy! I also have cystic breast disease but it’s non cancerous. I do have very regular mammograms but cysts are always cancer! They can be quite common.
