i noticed that i had this pea sized lump when i was last shaving a week ago it was painful to touch, didnt think much of it but its still there, its not painful anymore its pretty hard and just under the skin. im 20 and have a history of brca but i haven't been tested yet.

I also have my nipple pierced and this is on the same side so it could easily be an infection

i'm trying to make a gp appoint asap i just want to know what will happen. should i ask for a biopsy? knowing what the possible outcomes will calm me

thanks

    they’ll probably send you for a mammo, u/s, or mri, and based on that they’ll decide on the biopsy.


    This is the site I first noticed my tumor, but I hope yours is nothing serious
