What Causes An Oval Shaped Lump In The Breast?

default
Posted on Fri, 31 Mar 2017
Question: I wrote in a few months ago about my husband having a lump on his breast. It is an oval shaped lump not a hard nodule. The doctor did an ultrasound. He said it was nothing to worry about. He said to just watch it to see if it gets bigger. He didnt tell him what he thought it was. Should we get a second opinion? I am still worried about it. Does an ultrasound prove it isnt cancer?

It can be a simple fat collection called as Lipoma.
If it is not Lipoma , he will suggest ultrasound guided biopsy .
