Most breast lumps in children don’t need treatment if they are not getting bigger or causing pain.

The doctor may take a biopsy (when a small sample of the breast lump tissue is removed and checked under a microscope). Lumps that are growing quickly may need to be surgically removed. This is done with a procedure called a lumpectomy (when a doctor removes the abnormal breast tissue while your child is asleep under general anesthesia).
