2 nodules in Right Breast of 6 mm and 5 mm

My Mom is 53 yrs old and  was asked for memo then recall for Ultrasound, Ultrasound report shows she has one 6 mm nodules at 6 o'clock and second 5 mm nodules at between 5 and 6 o'clock. She is not taking any medication and healthy. Now Dr suggested for Biopsy. She is not having any pain or neither she can feel them. Could any one please advise?

IF the nodules do prove to be malignant being the size you state this would be a fairly early stage BUT all nodules do NOT necessarily mean cancer.
Here's hoping the biopsy will return negative results for cancer and the nodules will prove to be some benign issue.  Regards ....

Yes, we are going to have the Biopsy but just hoping that this is just a benign . As this nodules are small in size is curable, right.

By all means HAVE the biopsy !!! This could be cancer !! I am not saying that it is but it is certainly is a possibility. There is no reason that she would feel anything since the nodules are the size you have stated. Cancer does not cause pain ...... PLEASE GET THAT BIOPSY !!!
