I have a lump in my breast. I'm 17 and I can't tell if it's really a problematic lump or just a normal breast thing. It doesn't hurt unless I touch it or press it against something(like tables in class). I've really just ignored it all this while but 2 days ago, a red discoloration appeared on the top of my breast. I didn't fall and my hygiene is really good. It looks like paint, it doesn't hurt or anything but I am worried. Could it be cancer?
