Breast lump

Hi,

Hoping someone can calm me. 2 weeks ago, had a very sore breast, slightly red around nipple. Went to the doc the next day, she seemed to thing it was infection. It was firm above the nipple and I could feel a lump under nipple. I'm not breastfeeding , and my youngest is nearly 4. Took antibiotics for a week, it calmed down but could still feel the lump, doctor gave me another 5 days antibiotics! Lump is still there and feels a little tender, don't know if that's from me checking it too often ! I've phoned doctors to get a referral so waiting to hear back, just wondering if anyone else has any similar stories when not breastfeeding??

Oh really 😩.. no I don't have any pain. Just randomly found a lump. Went to the doctors last Friday then I got appointment come thorough with in a hour for just over a week away. Which I thought was good. I would chase up the appointment. My doctor told me, I should get an appointment within 24 hours max! Hope yours all goes well though x

What did your guys lumps feel like? Currently waiting on a letter appt for breast clinic also :(

Riverlee · 19/09/2023 09:33

Mine felt like a wooden bead or a dried out pea that had gone hard.

Ash09876 · 19/09/2023 21:26

Mine was a hard funny shape, but I could move it around. I was seen to very quickly. The people at the breast clinic were so lovely and sympathetic. Made me feel at ease. When I was having the scan. They were talking me through what they could see and what was normal. Mine all came back clear. Fingers crossed yours will :)
