text: i recently found a lump on my breast,? i don't know if it's a cyst, swollen lymph node, or milk gland... can someone help me with morphology? the only way to know for sure is to go to your doctor. i found a lump some months back and went to the doctor straight away, mainly as i was worrying and panicking like crazy! they sent me to see a specialist and after an examination and what was just like having an ultra sound on my breast they told me it was just swollen glandular tissue. its a painless procedure and it will put your mind at rest. cysts do need treating too, they often need to be drained which is not a big deal and easily done. if it is something that needs treating its better to get it done sooner rather than later. good luck!
