I need help on what to do

Ive found 2 lumps in my breasts, i think they change size during my cycle but im paranoid im just thinking they do, ive been getting very worked up about them incase its a problem. Recently in the past month or so ive had one in my armpit too, ive called my doctors and they wouldnt see me in person but on call said it should be fine as ive got no family history, im 16 and i dont smoke or drink etc but i am terrified, what should i do? Does this sound very concerning? Im not sure how to use this im sorry if im doing it wrong :/ i can move all these lumps freely and they dont hurt unless i do it too often and irritate them i suppose. Theres no dimples or discharge etc just lumps

  • Hi there ...

    Firstly, it's so so so rare for someone your age to have breast cancer ... and you could be making things more tender if you keep prodding them ... try leaving them a few weeks and see if they go naturally.. the best time to feel for lumps is in the shower with a flat hand ... not prodding ... can you ask your mum what she thinks or sister or someone you trust ...

    If they don't go, maybe your parent could have a word with your g p ... as even though it's so rare, lumps should be checked ... but it really is extremely unlikely ...

    Fingers crossed it will be fine ... but gentle but firm, asking your Dr to examine you if they don't go ... Chrissie....
