Fibroadenoma painful

Hi ladies looking for some advice, i was diagnosed with a fibroadenoma sept 2019. I found the lump and had a scan from the scan they said looked like a fibroadenoma. I wasnt offered a biopsy i think because i was under 25 at the time and they prefer not to. Anyway my concern now is that the past few days its been painful and quite tender. Since finding it in 2019 its never caused me any pain or even know its there! Should i go back to gp and have it checked over again? 

  • Hey Kimberley, 

    As you've noticed changes it would be best to book an appointment with your GP as they can examine the area again and let you know if it's any cause for concern. Hopefully this won't be the case but it's always good to get anything like this checked, especially for peace of mind.

    Many of our members have been in similar situations so hopefully some of them will offer their thoughts and advice to you soon.

    All the best,
