Hi there,
I'm 26 years old and noticed a couple weeks ago a lump on my right breast. I noticed it while menstruating but decided to go see my gyno because it was very unusual. He said he was pretty sure it was normal swelling from my period and to keep an eye on it. I was schedule for my annual exam about a month and a half after I went in for the exam so he said we would revisit it then.
After my period ended the lumpiness was still there but wasn't painful. It's been about two weeks since my period ended and all of a sudden I have a lot of pain in the area where the lumpiness is. The lumpy area is now roughly the size of a golf ball, stiff, and painful to touch. It almost feels like a muscle knot that you get in your back or neck.
I'd like to get examined again but I'm not sure if I'm just being paranoid. Also, I live with two female roommates and once has started to get PMS symptoms this week. Could this pain be related to her menstrual cycle??
Thank you, thank you, thank you for ANY insight!
