Suggest Remedy For The Knot Under Breast In 7 Months Old

my daughter is 7 months old and she has a knot under her right breast. last month the doctor said usually they are gone by the time the child is 6 months but as long as it isn t bigger. it was the size of a bee bee last month and this month it is the size of a green pea so i think it has gotten a little bigger. should i take her to a specialist? We have all types of cancer that run in my family and i m a little freaked out now at this point. Thanks

Hi... I don't think this is related to cancer. Do not worry. Sometimes these things can happen due to hormonal changes and they will settle down by themselves as your doctor has suggested.

But I suggest that you get an ultrasound examination done of that region so that we can be sure what it is.
