Pea-sized lump in left breast

bluebunny88

I have a lump that’s a size of a pea on the left side under the nipple. It’s painless and appears movable (I can hold it in my fingers like a little ball and it’ll slip). It’s sorta dark in color but not really dark and it feels like there might be fluid but not sure. I thought it was a pimple at first but starting to think it’s not. It’s easy to see on the surface of the skin and feel under the skin.

I’m 41 and just been diagnosed with small fibroids and endometrial polyps. The polyps are getting removed in a few weeks. I wonder if there’s a relationship. I just finished my loooooooong period so it’s probably just hormones with the menstruation but I can’t be sure. I’ve heard of fibroadenoma but I’m not sure about that considering my age. Only my grandmother had breast cancer but she survived after a single mastectomy and the cancer never returned. My mom had both ovaries removed to prevent ovarian cancer and that’s about it as far as family history goes.

Any women between 40 and 45 in the same situation?

Well since there’s no response, I’ll just update. As of now, there’s been no change. I noticed there’s a tiny “head” there and it appears shiny when I take a picture. I’ve been taking a picture every day since finding it to monitor its progress. I think it’s likely just a cyst but I’m waiting to hear from my doctor. I called right before the weekend. If there’s no change in the lump, is that a good thing and likely not cancer?

Only your doctor can tell you if it is cancer. I pray it's not. I haven't read about any cancer that starts that way, but he will probably do a biopsy if he has any doubts. Wishing you all the best! Prayers!
