General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and thanks for your query.

I shall make an effort to provide you with good professional recommendations specific to your questions.

It is difficult to diagnose exactly without examining it, and it would have been better if you had mentioned the size, how doesit feel to touch, movable or not, would have been helpful in diagnosing. It is better to see doctor for examination and further evalution.

Im not sure but it might be Fibroadenomas, which are solid, noncancerous breast tumors that occur most often in adolescent girls and women under the age of 30.

It can be diagnosed by examination, memmography and FNAC. In many cases, fibroadenomas require no treatment. However, some women choose to have their fibroadenomas surgically removed for their peace of mind.

Yet again, I duly appreciate your query to me, I do hope that you have found something useful to help you and I shall be glad to answer any further apprehensions.

Sincerely,
I find this answer helpful
