Suggest Remedy For Movable Lump On Left Breast
I am 17 years old, and i have found something on my left breast. It is on the bottom outer side of my breast and it feels like silly putty is in my breast, but it is more hard than play dough like. If i put my hand on it and move around my hand the "thinig" feels like a pulled tendon or something of that matter... I Just noticed it yesterday, and it feels like a pretty good size to me. It does hurt to move it or if something just hit ist. Should i be worried?

Welcome to health care magic.
1.The possible cause in this case could be ductal ectasia ( dilated ducts). Next possible cause is adenomas - mass lesions,lastly cyst.
2.In your age i would suspect ductal pathology - due to hormonal imbalance, cyclical issue.
3.In this case i would recommend you to get an ultrasound - non invasive, no radiation scan for assessment of the lump.
4.Ultrasound will help to assess the nature of the lump, source and extensions. If mass lesion an FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology will be helpful to assess the nature of the cells involved in the process.
5.I would recommend to see your GP, get examined,investigated and needful treatment. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
