Considering your age I don't believe there is any concern about Breast Cancer ... Cysts and Fibroadenomas are rather common in younger women; in fact probably half of all women of any age can be affected by Fibrocystic Breast Condition. Both the above mentioned issues are benign and can be related to the hormone levels in the body. If you continue to be concerned I suggest that you see either your Primary Care Physician or your GYN for a clinical breast exam. Take care .....

Hi,
I don't think that these green bruises have anything to do with breast cancer,there are several factors that could cause them,such as minor trauma to the breasts, that you may not recollect,wearing ill-fitting bras,medication and also rigorous exercises can also lead to tear in the blood vessels leading to bruising.
Green is usually one stage of healing in bruises. You can expect this to change color from green to yellow within the next few days and then disappear completely.
If the discoloration doesn't go away or if you get more bruises, you should check with your doctor to investigate what is causing the bruising okay?
Best wishes...

Evidently you have at some time hit, squeezed or bumped your chest area. This can happen even without realizing it. I see no particular reason to be terribly concerned since this involves both breasts. When a bruise is "green" in appearance it's usually not a "fresh" bruise but one that has been there for more than a day or two. If this doesn't go away in a week and you are still worried I suggest that you see your Dr. for an examination. In the meantime you might be careful NOT to further injure the bruised tissue. Regards .....
