Hi , I'm im 37 and suffer from health aniexty for the past 6 years . Last night I was self checking my breasts like I do do all the time and I found a small firm pea size lump in left breast ,it does move slightly .anyone offer advice please on what it could be .Iam going to doctors Monday morning x
Pea size and hard needs to be checks out. But I'd it's not hard it fatty tissue and it moves
Most of the time pain didn't mean cancer.
I know this is an older post. I hope you found out.
Hello Louise, I also noticed a lump in my left breast, it is rubbery to touch, I visited a teaching hospital, doctors felt it and said it wasn't malignant. But I wasn't satisfied cos am still having minor breast discomforts. I had to wean my 7 month old daughter and today, I've come for checkup so I can be told what next to do. Don't panic yet, but hope to hear from u soon.

I literally had to look at the username twice because I thought for a minute that I wrote this and didn't remember. I am also 37, have health anxiety, and found a pea size lump. It does move around under my fingertips. Please let us know how your appt goes!
A moveable pea sized lump could be a harmless thing called a breast mouse although there is another "proper" name for it. I had one and had it cut out and have never had it back.
I was booked for surgery to have my lump removed, the doctors said the lump was too tiny and it was not stable, they used a needle to pin it down for easy detection after the cut, but liquid came out of the lump, the lump varnished only for a bigger one to reappear that same evening, I'll visit the doctor for checkup next week ,Monday
I didn't have the surgery. The lump has melted. Just a little trace of it. I am only having breast itchings. But am calming it down with ginger and lemon grass protocol. Really works.
