Breast lump

Hi I'm 27 and I found a lump on my right breast at the bottom/underneath, I had my ultrasound today and the Dr said she couldn't see anything bad and explained that it's cartilage? And how your ribs can move so it can push it up towards the boob however she said I'd get contacted for another exam within 2 weeks? So I'm a bit confused, is this normal? Should I be worried? 

  • Hello Aimes_ and thanks for posting, 

    Overall,  as the doctor said she doesn't think anything bad is going on, this doesn't really sound very worrying. I don't think it is unusual for doctors to ask for additional scans to be able to review a combination of images although I am not sure if I would say it is normal either. I think this varies from one person to another, don't let it throw you off balance and bear in mind what was said.
