In answer to this question, no, it doesn't necessarily mean a teenager has breast cancer if she/he has a lump in each breast! You don't have to have a lump to have Breast cancer. If there is a lump, it could be a cyst and for teens all breast examinations, feeling for changes and LOOKING for changes should be done after menstruation. If the lump remains after menstruation she/he should be seen by a doctor. There are many people who have fibrocystic breasts. To make sure this is a cyst, the doctor can perform a needle biopsy which is non-invasive.

Some of the more prevalent symptoms of breast cancer include: 1) a detectable lump, mass, or nodule in the breast or underarm areas beneath the skin (this doesn't necessarily mean it's cancer, but these need to be checked out by a physician), 2) swelling, tenderness, red streaking, or localized pain, especially around an area where a lump, mass or nodule has been detected, 3) any discharge not related to lactation/breast-feeding, 4) (general to cancer infection) unexplained malaise (tiredness), weakness, fever, etc.

You found a lump near your breast and near breast bone what could it be?
i had these symptoms. went to the doc she did mammograms and ultrsounds and sent me home saying that those were clear and that i would just have to learn to live with this painful growing lump in my breast on the inner part near the breast bone. thank god i had enogh sense to demand an mri because she didnt want to give me one. it was the mri that found stage 4 breast cancer growing into my breast bone and ribs. i am now in a med malpractice lawsuit with her while going through chemo. my warning to you is this- see a doc and be persistent. demand an mri! mammos and ultrasound are useless!
