I have a pain in my right breast with irregular pattern for about 2 months but it got regular for about 2 weeks. I feel a little painful lump and pain goes to armpit.
My right breast nipple is hot and feel pain when touches. There is no discharge from the nipples. I have a feeling size of right breast is slightly bigger but it may be my feelings because been reading a lot about breast cancer in the past few days.
Please help me to understand symptoms I have explained above resembles with breast cancer? and what should I do until to get my ultrasound date confirmed by the breast clinic

@mehreen You are getting to an age where your breasts can really start to swell up, get lumps and be very painful. Sometimes it would feel like they were on fire. Keep a note of when you have your period and when you ovulate and see if there is a pattern. If there is, it is probably cyclical breast pain which is really common when our hormones change. You may be just about to start your perimenopause. I was told if your lumps are painful that is usually a good sign and it usually means it is hormonal. The worst thing you can do is read up on breast cancer symptoms because you can convince yourself that you have some of them and until you can get an ultrasound there is nothing you can do. Breast lumps and pain are very common and are usually nothing to worry about.
