Hi - You almost certainly have absolutely nothing to worry about. Please read our Teen Guide to Breast Development. At your age, the statistical probability of breast cancer is 0%. But your breasts are growing and developing, and will no doubt feel different - lumpy, painful - along the way. If, after reading the above post, you still feel something is wrong, please see a doctor. But I'm betting the informaiton you read will make you feel a lot better. Good luck - PJH
