I'm really concerned about a tumor in my breast that's about 1.5 inches from the top. It feels round, but the inside seems flat. It's been painful twice a week, and I feel the same pain on my back where the tumor is located. I've been seeing a homeopathic doctor who said it would improve in six months, but it seems to be getting worse and I haven't done any medical tests yet. What should I do?

I'm really worried because I've got this lump in my left armpit, and it's almost as big as half a table tennis ball. It's really painful, with sharp stabbing sensations. Plus, my left breast hurts a lot too, from the nipple to somewhere inside, with sharp electrical pains and then other times, it's a continuous dull ache that sticks around for hours. Which type of doctor should I see for this? And do you have any idea what kind of tests I might need?

it might be an abscess, consult a surgeon
