  • Hello and thanks for your post

    I appreciate worrying about these lumps is very stressful. There may be a number of different explanations for them, such as infection, or a build up of scar tissue. Although no one can say for sure what the cause is until this is investigated.

    The next step is to contact your breast care team or GP for further advice.

    There will be some waiting for appointments and if necessary other tests, so if in the meantime you would like to go over any of this ,or just have a chat, please do give us a ring. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    I hope everything turns out to be okay.

    Best wishes,

    Celene
