MANY girls AND BOYS get lumps under their nipples at your age. It's a reaction to hormones starting to flow. I'll tell you to not worry. However, I strongly recommend you find SOME adult woman that you feel comfortable talking to about the MANY questions you will have in the next few years. An aunt, a school nurse, a teacher; maybe even your mom.

I have just found a lump under my nipple of my right breast. My breasts are only aa but I have been growing a bit lately and yesterday I had real bad abdominal pains. Do you think this could be my period or something more serious??!! :?

The bad abdominal pains could be many different things. That alone could mean you should see a doctor. I’m not a medical authority. The nipple lump sounds like the same thing this message board is for—a cyst related to puberty and something semi-common for both girls and boys. However, mention it to your doctor. I always want to mention that you would do well to learn to communicate with your parents. You’re at the age where parents can seem quite annoying, but they need to learn that you’re growing up and this would be a perfect reminder for them.

It is also closer to the left side of my right breast, there is almost no cancer history in my family...... I am not on my period.... Is it cancer????? What is it??? Plz help! I have googled it to no end. I haven't told my mom yet and i really don't want to go to the doctors...

What you describe is not typical, such as lumps under the nipple. Tell your mom, get a doctor appointment. I am not a medical authority, but seem to know more about these things than most people.

A lump on the surface isn't what I hear of as often as lumps under the surface. You didn't say how large it is or how long you've had it. I'd guess it's a cyst, but my primary recommendation to all youth on this site is to TALK TO YOUR PARENTS.

Not all cysts are painful. With your age and since your preasts are developed, this doesn't sound like a typical cyst. I suggest you find someone to talk to--a school nurse, an aunt, but best is Your Mom. With your age, it's probably not cancer but might be a non-cancerous growth, other than a cyst, which a doctor might want removed. Some growths should be taken care of before pregnancy occurs. Yes, that may be years away for you, but some people forget about such things and the removal needs to be fully healed before pregnancy. I am NOT a medical authority, but feel you ought to see a doctor.

WE cannot tell you what it is. Only a doctor can. Please tell your mom. You can start with, "Mom, I have a bump under my nipple. It's probably a cyst, like many girls AND even boys can get when around my age." IF you can't get yourself to say this to your mom I strongly recommend you find SOME adult woman you feel comfortable talking to about the MANY questions YOU WILL HAVE in the next few years--An aunt, a school nurse, a teacher; a friend's mother.

hey I'm 13 (nearly 14) and around 2 weeks ago I felt a lump under my nipple I can move it around a little and it seems to change a little and i told my mom but she said I shouldn't worry. My breast on that side started hurting but I'm not sure if it is to do with that lump. I had no idea what it was and i couldn't find anything similar until I looked here. I'm a little worried and I don't feel that comfortable with my male doctor any advice?

I have lumps under both of my nipples. I might tell my mom tonight, so I can go see a doctor tomorrow because it hurts really bad!

I found a lump that stings on one of my nipples. I doubt it's breast cancer at age 17, but I'm still worried about it and don't know what it could be. Any advice?

Hi, I am 24 years old, and have red hard small lump on my nipple. Sometimes it is very painful, but sometimes it is not. What can I do? Is that the symptom of cancer?
