i am 12-going-on-13, and just today i have noticed a terribly painful, small group-of-beads sort of looking lump in my areola right above the nipple, i read that it might be a cyst but im rly worried it might be cancerous, its not big and, its not in the rest of my breast, but im like freaked out that it could be cancer. i just finished my period if it helps, and i might have been eating a lot of fatty foods lately. did i mention it rly hurts.

You have not mentioned if it is related to your periods or not - if yes then it's something to do with cyclical.4. A simple way to detect and diagnose ID Ultrasound breast (no radiation) easy way to detect weather its cyst/mass/fat globule. 5. after that one can decide for treatment accordingly. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
