Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 62 years old and have a very large cyst in the 11o'clock position in my right breast, I have been having shooting pains at intervals and under my rt armpit. This cyst has doubled in size since 2009. now my rt nipple is inverted when I raise my arms up over my head. Should I not be concerned about this. Thanks
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes your cyst should be concerned and further work up should be done to rule out nature of lesion. Biopsy can be done and send for histopathology examination for diagnosis.
USG scan also should be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
