What Does The Following Breast Biopsy Report Indicate?

Posted on Sat, 17 Jun 2017

Question: I had a breast biopsy done one week ago today. It was benign - mainly a calcium buildup. It had some bruising and swelling the last few days, but was told that was normal. Tonight I noticed towards the bottom of my breast very black . Quite certain it is a hematoma by looking at pictures on the internet. It doesn't hurt any more than it has been. Some soreness. Have developed a headache and backache. Took Tylenol and it is helping some. Should I see a doctor right away or wait until tomorrow ?

Brief Answer:
Wait

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

This hematoma takes about a week to resolve. I don't see any reason to panic.

Wait for a week for it to resolve. You can wait to see your doctor.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Regards
