Can an injury to the breast cause breast cancer?

0

An injury to the breast cannot cause breast cancer. However, it can cause a non-malignant lump. Fat necrosis can develop which is when tissue dies off due to trauma and becomes hard. This is not a form of cancer and does not develop into cancer over time, but can often be mistaken for cancer on a mammogram.
