Finding a lump in your breast can be frightening. Although most lumps aren't dangerous, it's important to have them evaluated promptly. Your Mayo Clinic doctor can tell you whether your lump is cancerous or, more likely, a common benign condition such as fibrocystic breast changes. Once your condition has been diagnosed, your treatment team can provide care specific to your personal needs.
