Lump on Breast

Yesterday when I was showering, I found a lump while checking my breasts. As I always do. I don't think it has hit me, how serious this could be.
Anyways, I'm going to the Doctors tomorrow to get it checked.
Was wondering if anyone can tell me how the doctor will know if it is serious or not. Will they know from just feeling it, or will I have to go the hospital to get tests done.
Ooo and to narrow it done a little; I don't smoke and only one of my aunts had cancer. Heart disease and diabetes is more common in my family than anything else.

I went to the doctor about a lump once too but he didnt refer me on. Most lumps arent cancer but they obviously need to check.
Does it make any difference if it hurts or not? Cause mine doesn't seem to hurt, ya see.
I don't think my lump is that big, just big enough to know it wasn't there before. But then again I've never had a lump before so I don't know. Ir defintely appeared out of no were as I check my breasts regularly.
I hate getting tests done.
Alright well thanks for your input. I appreciate it.
