I am an 18 year old girl and since I was 16 years old I have had a small lump on my right breast. It will come and go. I went to a doctor when I was 16 and they first told me I needed to see a specialist, the next time I went back they said it was a clogged something. I don?t remember what they called it, but two years later it?s still here and I want to know why. Do I need to see a doctor? Could it be serious?

Hello. Most probably what you are referring to is fibroadenoma which occurs in many female. Its a kind of developmental abnormality seen in the breasts. Most of the time it can be treated by conservative methods. But if more symptomatic then, its better get it removed surgically. The surgery will be a minor procedure under local injection, with small, hidden incision and without any future problems. Just to rule out other things a proper history and examination is always better. U can consult me, or text me for any more details.
