HI..
Welocme to HCM..
Lump in the breast could be a simple fibroadenoma ( harmless condition ),
or a tumour..
If in doubt a needle aspiration biopsy for the lump should be done and if indicated a mammogram..
Discuss with the surgeon in detail about the possible diagnoses and let him take the necessary step accordingly..
Don't neglect it..
Hope this information helps.. Take care..
