Hi
I had a vacuum assisted biopsy nearly 2 weeks ago I’m still bruised in the area. But also feels very lumpy inside of breast. Where prior there were no lumps is this normal for the breast to feel lumpy this long after biopsy
Hi, biopsies can cause some pain, bruising and swelling but I'd suggest you give your nurse a quick call and have a chat, if nothing else than to put your mind at ease. Good luck
Thanks. I am in on Wednesday. So will hold out till then. When I see consultant

Hiya, I had an mri guided biopsy (vacuum) on Wednesday and I'm black and blue and have a lump so I think this is normal (this is on the boob that isn't cancerous but just had something show up on the initial mri) but if you're concerned definitely call your BCC, much love to you xx F
