What is means small hard lump in breast

2018-07-23 12:34:43
I am a 37 year old woman and I recently noticed that I have developed a small, hard lump on my breast. I immediately thought it was cancer and was shaken up for a while. Then I realized that not all lumps are malignant. I want to know what kind of lumps are malignant and when I must visit the doctor to seek medical advise. Thanks!
