One Breast is bigger than the other...with Lumps! Posted: 08-17-06 05:36am
Well, I have always had this tense feeling
in my breasts and they always hurt. Two
years ago I had reddish lumps in my armpit
and I saw doc. He examined (I had
ultrasound check) and told me I had this
fibrocustic disease. One of my breasts is
one size bigger than the other, and I can
feel the lumps in it. It's too hard,
actually both of my breasts are too hard.
He sai there is no need to remove the
lumps before they get bigger.
Well, I hate this pain. And I'm not happy
with the size of my breasts (left breast
B, right breast C but it changes from bra
to bra). At least I want to have breast
reduction on my right breast because the
look really disturbs me, and it's not easy
to find the right bra. Plus, it is the one
with more lumps.
I wonder if people wih fibrocystic disease
can have breast reduction. Or the removal
of lumps would make my breast smaller. And
what can I do to lessen the pain in my
breasts.
Thanks.

You can request a mammography first and
then consult a plastic surgeon about
breast correction. Be sure to mention
pain in the breasts during your
examinations.
