It's important to contact your doctor as soon as possible if you notice any new or changed lumps in your breasts. Here are some key points to consider:

- Breast Cancer Lumps: Typically irregular in shape, firm or solid, single (not clustered), and generally don't move if pressed.
- Benign Lumps: Could be fibroadenomas, cysts, abscesses, fat necrosis, scar tissue, hematomas, or galactoceles.
- Location: About 50% of cancerous lumps develop in the outer upper portion of the breast and extend into the armpit area.

Given your history of a mastectomy, it's crucial to have any new lumps evaluated by your healthcare provider.
