Fibroid Biopsy
Difference between a cyst lump, and cancer lump?
What is the difference in feel of a cancer lump, and a fibroid?
I have had the same lump in my breast for about a year, and my doctor says it’s fibroid cyst. She did not run a biopsy, but did to a mammogram. The lump has not gotten bigger throughout the year.
I did notice another lump in the same breast about 2 weeks ago.
I’m a bit worried, as my breast has has had a dull pain in it for the past month. I have been drinking a lot of caffeine though.
A cyst has a round shape, whereas cancer will have an irregular shape. Also, a cyst will have what is called an “encapsulated” feel when you touch it…you can sort of move it around under your skin. Not so with cancer.
