Hi - A nodule is a small mass of tissue, a place where cells have clumped together to form a little knot. I'm glad your doctor is finding out what it is; sounds like you have a good pediatrician! I wouldn't worry about cancer if I were you; my understanding is that 10 months is WAY too young to have breast cancer. I'm sure (s)he'll fill you in about the cause once the blood work is done. Good luck - PJH
