Breast cancer at your age is extremely rare, though not unheard of!. It's mainly a disease of ageing - 80% of those diagnosed are over 50, it's rare in women under 40 and very rare indeed in women under 30!.

Most breast lumps aren't cancerous, and most cancerous breast lumps aren't painful - the majority of people diagnosed have felt no pain!.

Many women have naturally lumpy breasts!. The purpose of breast self-examination is to become familiar with how your breasts normally are so that you recognise any changes and report them to your doctor!.

It's very unlikely that what you describe is breast cancer; but if you continue to be concerned see your doctor!. It is highly unlikely s/he will order a mammogram as young women's breast tissue is too dense for mammograms to be an effective diagnostic tool!. But if s/he is concerned, there are other investigations s/he can refer you for!. Hopefully, though, s/he will be able to reassure you!.

Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

If its in both breasts and as you described, it could just be fatty tissue!. I have that as well!. But you should get it checked out anyway!. If nothing else!.!.just to put your mind at ease!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
