I'm 15 but could I have breast cancer? - Cancer: Breast Message Board

I'm 15 and last night I noticed some white on my nipple. I thought it was discharge but I'm not sure, cuz it was kind of flaky so could it be just dry skin? and then today I noticed a lump type thing on my left breast. I'm kind of scared I dont know if it's supposed to be there like a muscle or a milk duct but it "wiggles" and I have one on my right breast but my right breast is thinner than my left. Is that normal? I'm really paranoid that I might have breast cancer but my mom says it's nothing and not to worry about it. Should I worry?

Jellybean, I would worry too just because i am a worry wart, but really i would call my doc and make an appointment and i am sure that its nothing to really worry about, my cousin just found a bump on her breast and she is only 10, and doc says shes growing and forming and they are like milk ducts, i myself had one that turned out to be nothing, so for your piece of mind i would get it checked, but the chance of breast cancer for you is REALLY low.
God Bless

Thanx! My mom made an appointment for saturday I think. I'm not that worried anymore just because if it is sumthing it's probably early enough to treat, but chances are it isnt anything...i hope not anywayz! lol
