Hematologist (Blood Specialist) Questions Blood Clots

I have a blood clot on my left breast. Can it turn into a tumor?

I have a strange blood clot on my left breast. Since it doesn’t hurt, I have not shown it to the doctor. However, now I am wondering, can this blood clot turn into a tumor if left untreated?

Less likely for a blood clot in your breast to convert into a tumor. Be reassured. Continue to follow up with your physician for your care.
You need to see a breast specialist and get a clinical breast exam. Also, get a breast mammogram.
Not very likely. How do you know it is a blood clot? You should see your Doc.
It is unlikely to be able to predict what the diagnosis is unless you have been examined by your doctor and your doctor will determine if you need a breast ultrasound.
You need to be seen by your OBGyn for a breast exam.

Take care!
You must see your doctor and have a mammogram done asap.
It is difficult to answer that question without seeing the lesion. You should show it to your doctor. Most breast issues are painless until they have become advanced.
