Lump in left breast...help.

Hi, so I'm 24 years old and for the past few weeks I've been having pain in my left breast, it's been feeling sore, heavy and  swollen. I put it down to being due ony period but it's just persisted and with it just being the left side I had a feel and checked my breast and found quite a deep hard lump :( Saw my GP yesterday and I have to wait for an appointment to go down to the hospital. I'm really anxious and worried as breast cancer runs in my family. 

  • Hello Jay2020,

    Just wanted to say hi and say that you did the right thing in contacting your GP. I hope you won't have to wait too long for your appointment. The only person that can find out more and diagnose you is your doctor, so hopefully they'll get to the bottom of your symptoms. 

    Try not to worry and take care,
