Breast cancer?

564>i'm only 13 but cancer does run in my family. i am a 32AA and doen't have a period. on my right breast by my armpit there is a wierd bubp about the size of a marble. what do you think the % chance is that it is cancer? should i tell my mom? will i need a mammogram?
Reply:Since you haven't got your period yet, I especially say it isn't breast cancer since your body isn't producing vast amounts of estrogen yet. It is uncommon for someone under the age of 30 to have breast cancer. Is this bump on the skin or under? If on the skin it may be a very large skin tag or if under it's most likely an ingrown hair. Usually you can tell because ingrown hairs are painful. You won't need a mammogram but tell your mother so she can tell you what to do about whatever it is.
Reply:Tell your mom and get it checked out. It's better to be safe than sorry.
