Finding a new lump in the
breast can be distressing.
Prompt diagnosis and
management can help to quickly alleviate the distress.
While there are many different
types of lumps, the most important thing is identifying those that need to be
removed from those that are normal.
In order to assess your breast
health properly, we would take into account your health and family history and
do a physical examination of the breast.
We would likely order breast
imaging such as Mammogram, Ultrasound or MRI depending on each individual
situation.
If further testing is needed,
a biopsy may be recommended to confirm the diagnosis.
