Breast with hard tissue?
Over the past few months I've noticed that there's hard tissue in my right breast, but not the other. I've read before that teenagers (I'm 17), due to fluctuating hormones, tend to have breast changes.
There's no pain-- even with applied pressure on the tissue, and the nipples appear to be the same on both sides. However, there is pain anytime I apply pressure to my right armpit, if that has any relation.
Since I'm young, and breast cancer is usually in older women, I don't really know if I should worry about it.

Breast cancer can occur in any one, male or female and any age. You may have a cyst or a low grade infection somewhere. We have lymph nodes in the arm pits and they become tender when there's infection nearby. The fact that it's fairly new and a change for you means it's a good idea to have it checked by your doctor. It's probably nothing but it wouldn't hurt to know that for sure.
