Thank you i feel a little better now but i do want to ask you the about the lump i feel,
it is big it does not hurt also it really is not near the procedure site yes it is the same breast..
what are signs of infection besides a solid mass that does not hurt.
Thank you for your help with my questons
Hi.
After the needle biopsy procedure, the area of the puncture site may indeed develop swelling, lumpiness and redness, however it is important that a bacterial infection of the site is ruled out. This may warrant a course of antibiotic if your doctor thinks the site is infected.
All the technical reports of the pathologist just means that there is an abnormal proliferation of your breast cells which at the present, are not cancer. However, I would agree in doing a larger biopsy such as an excision biopsy to have the entire lesion examined and look for other sites of abnormalities in the lesion. Regards.
