What Do Sore Spots On The Breasts Indicate?
I went to my family physician for a breast exam. this was needed because I had a CT scan on my lungs and the problem wasn't in my lungs, but in my left breast. So my doctor did the exam and want me to have a mammogram and ultrasound on both breasts. Before he left the room we were in he made the comment that I needed to get rid of my breasts. They are very dense and feel lumpy and sore in spots. Why would a doctor say this before I have even had the tests done?
