True. Yes, you're right. Most breast cancers present themselves as a lump in the breast. That said, not all lumps in the breast are cancerous. And, not all breast cancer lumps can be felt. Sometimes they're too small to feel`sc` sometimes they're positioned in a spot that makes them nearly impossible to feel. With lobular breast cancer, the tumor is more a thickening than a lump. And in cancer of the nipple, or inflammatory breast cancer, there's no lump at all. So while a lump in the breast is indeed the most common symptom of breast cancer, it's a) not always a symptom, and b) not the only type of symptom.
