Should a 7mm lump be romoved from your breast if it is not cancer but is giving a lot of discomfort??


Answers: If you already had a biopsy and it wasn't cancer, there is no need to remove it, it will probably fade away in time (depending on what it was). If you feel discomfort or it is bothering you, you could have it removed anyway. The scar should be hardly noticeable and is done around the nipple.
ask your doctor
The most important thing is what the lump is. If it is not cancer, it can be left alone. And depends on what you meant by `discomfort'. Most lumps can be removed surgically, and if you feel that it is causing you a lot of distress, and you feel that you would definitely benefit from the removal of the lump, then just get a surgeon to remove it.
If it's giving discomfort, you need to remove it. See your breast specialist.
You are asking about your wife. Who can say? No outsider can decide whether the growth should or shouldn't be removed, not even her husband. This is a decision that only your wife can and should make.
