Cysts typically can be moved around a little when you push on them and they may cause some pain and discomfort!. Breast cancer cells are very tightly packed and won't move when you press on the site and typically you don't feel pain when you press on a BC lump!. Maybe pressure pain, but not a pain from the lump itself!. BC cells are typically hard to the touch!.!.!.almost like a steal ball!. Get checked to try to discover just what it is your feeling!.!.!.A self exam, by you or your Dr!. really won't tell you anything at this point!.!.!.
