<human>: HelloI am experiencing a ppain and a hard lump in my left beast since the past month.My mammography reports and ultrasound suggest features appear consistent with fibroadenosis left breast.Kindly let me know if I am at a risk of cancer or how should this be treated
<bot>: HI. Just to sedate your worries. Cancers are never painful in the beginning stage. Fibroadenosis is never to get transformed into cancer. The best way to get disease diagnosed is FNAC- fine needle aspiration cytology / Biopsy. Biopsy is of few types, and you decide which one you want to undergo;Part of the lump removed from the most suspicious area. OR- the whole lump is removed - you get two benefits-1-The painful disease is removed, and you get rid of the disease forever.2- Your Pathologist gets the whole lump - so that he can declare for sure whether you have got a cancer or not. THE ONLY problem is a scar and may be volumetric reduction in size. So it is up to you to decide. Most important is histological diagnosis. Te only sure way to know Theo diagnosis.
