I have a small hard lump/? on my left breast.

I have found a small, feels sharp lump? on my left breast.  It feels about the size: bigger that a needle top, but smaller than a pea.  It feels like it has a *sharp* edge.  Should this be checked out?

Dear Pammie, It's difficult to imagine what you are describing as "sharp".  If this lump is new, different and concerns you it is best to have it examined by a health care professional.

I have to give pressure to get the feel, but it feels like the tip of a DULL pencil.  I can not get into my Dr. untill the 19th, and every other time I find something she moves it off to fibercystic breast tissue.  This just feels different, the other are bbigger, movable and *lumpy*, this feels small and like it has a point of a dull pencil.
