7When to Visit a Doctor
It is important to note that most suspicious breast lumps are benign and noncancerous. Nevertheless, you should visit your healthcare provider when:
– A lump becomes larger or changes
– A lump does not disappear after the menstrual cycle
– A breast area is significantly different from others
– You notice a new breast mass
– There is bloody discharge from your nipple
– The nipple is inverted
– The breast skin is red
– There is a bruise on the breast for no clear reason [10]
