Q: Bruise Discoloration

I am looking for advice. Last week my daughter jumped on my chest,
and the next day I noticed a bruise on my right breast. (the bruise
is still there, black, blue, and yellow) today I noticed a red area
under this breast (my breast is large, and the bra I was wearing was
too small.) could both these conditions point to breast cancer?
Is is unusual to have the red mark several hours after taking the bra
off. Or is this a coincidence? Thanks for any help.

Prob Not...

It's not likely that you have brest cancer! It's could be because when she jumped on you she jumped to hard and you are now brused. But I would say if it dosnt go away in another week or so id go to the doctors just to make sure you didnt pop any blood vesseles or anything like that.
