Hello,

I'm a 22 yr old female and I recently found a small lump under my right armpit. The lump is the size of a dime, painless, and kind of solid. It doesn't have a black dot or anything. I did not go to the doctors yet.. but I'm scared it could be the start of breast cancer... Could it?

As your question if you are finding lump in breast then visit to doctor because it was symptoms of breast cancer. And there are two type of breast cancer 1) Which was occuring due to milk secretion tubes and 2) By tissues.
