I am only 16, so I don't THINK this is breast cancer, but for months I have had a tiny abnormal lump on the side of my right breast.. underneath the armpit. It doesn't hurt, and it hasn't gotten any bigger. Is the spot where this lump is a common place for breast cancer tumors to pop up?

Firstly, there is more than one type of cancer that is commonly found in the breast. These different cancers attack different parts of the breast tissue in different ways, so there is no single correct answer to your question. At your age, this is unlikely to be breast cancer, but if it is, the sooner you get it diagnosed and treated, the more chance you have of seeing your grandchildren! Go to your Dr and get it checked. 9 out 10 breast lumps are not cancer. It is better to be safe than sorry on this one!

I know that I have/had a lot of cists in my breasts and I have also been diagnosed with breast cancer. I still have one breast and I cannot tell any difference. If you are concerned, please, please go to the Dr. They can come up anywhere. I had a actual lump in my left breast near the nipple but many many masses in that same breast
