Lumps in the breasts?
DefinitionThere are many causes for lumps in the breast. These range from normal changes in your body to abnormal breast disease. Breast lumps are either benign (noncancerous) or malignant(cancerous).See also: Breast lumps and cancerCauses, incidence, and risk factorsSome lumps are age-dependent. Newborn boys and girls both have lumps of enlarged breast tissue beneath the nipple, which have been stimulated by the mother's hormones. These disappear within a few months of birth.Beginning as early as age 8, girls may develop tender lumps beneath one or both nipples (frequently only one). These lumps are breast buds and are one of the earlier signs of the beginning of puberty.Boys at mid-puberty (usually around age 14 or 15) may develop tender lumps beneath one or both nipples, also in response to the hormonal changes of puberty. These tend to disappear over a period of 6 months to 1 year. See: GynecomastiaIt is also important to remember that hormonal changes just prior to menstruation may give a lumpy or granular feeling to the breast tissue.The discovery of a lump in the breast usually brings the thought of breast cancer immediately to mind. Breast cancer may occur in men and women, but it is much more common in women. For specific information, see the article on breast cancer.However, it is important to remember that 80-85% of all breast lumps are benign, especially in women under age 40. Benign causes of breast lumps include:Breast infection (breast abscess)Fibrocystic breast diseaseFibroadenomaFat necrosis (damage to some of the fat tissue within the breast; a fat necrosis mass cannot be distinguished from breast cancer without biopsy)SymptomsSymptoms depend on the underlying cause of the lump. Signs of a potentially cancerous breast lump may include:A painless lump that is firm or hard, with irregular borders (edges)Armpit lumpArm swellingBone painDifference in breast size, compared with what it previously looked likeNipple changes, including pulling inward, swelling, or itchingNipple discharge -- usually bloody or straw-colored fluidSkin changes such as dimpling or "orange peel" appearance, redness, easy to see veins on breast surface, and eventually skin ulcerationWeight lossSigns and testsThe doctor will perform a breast exam to feel for lumps. Tests that may be used to determine if a lump is cancer may include:Breast biopsyBreast ultrasoundMammogramBreast MRITreatmentTreatment depends on the underlying cause of the breast lump.For specific treatment information, see the article on the specific disease.Expectations (prognosis)The long-term outlook depends on the type of problem. See the specific condition for detailed information.Calling your health care providerCall your health care provider if you find a new, unusual, or changing lump during your breast self-examination.Also call for an appointment if you are a woman:40 or older who has never had a baseline mammogram35 or older with a mother or sister who have had breast cancer, or a personal history of breast, uterine, ovarian, or colon cancer25 or older, and you are not sure how to perform a breast self-examinationPreventionTo avoid fibrocystic changes in your breast tissue, avoid excessive fat and caffeine in your diet.Most cases of breast cancer cannot be prevented. However, early detection and prompt treatment are important. All women should receive routine breast exams from a doctor and routine mammograms, as recommended.All women over the age of 40 should also perform breast self-exams every month, preferably at the end of their menstrual period when the breasts are less tender and less swollen. Women who are breastfeeding should examine their breasts after completing a feeding.ReferencesIn: Abeloff MD, Armitage JO, Niederhuber JE, Kastan MB, McKena WG, eds. Clinical Oncology. 4th ed.
