I've noticed that my left breast has been swollen for over a month now, and I'm really concerned about it. Could you explain what might be causing this? Should I be worried? Also, what kind of doctor should I see about this? Is this something serious?

My mom had breast conservation surgery and just got her biopsy report but still waiting for ER PR results. The staging says T1N1aMx and mentions metastasis couldn't be determined - does this mean they don't have enough data or are unsure? Also, I read stage IIA cancers are nonmetastatic, so why does it say Mx then? What does this report mean and what should we do next?

sx opinion is advised.
