General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, with regards to your concern. a physical examination is needed. breast ultrasound and a possible tissue diagnosis of the lump on your breast will be done if indications are found. one cannot tell if it is cancer or not without doing those things.

hope this helps.

good day!!
