    I think it is within the realm of normal for the breast tissue to feel a bit tender around this stage, and breasts can develop asymmetrically, but there could be other causes (cysts, infection, etc) so I would be tempted to get it checked out anyway.

    I found this for you on a teen puberty website that might be helpful and put your mind at ease a bit ...

    Common Concerns about Breast Bud For Girls Puberty

    If you are experiencing preteen puberty, you likely have many questions and concerns about your newly emerging breasts...don't worry, change can be a little scary and you may not know what to expect, but it is also exciting and fun.

    Itchy, Sore, Tender, Painful Breasts

    Don't be surprised if your breasts (either one or both) feel itchy, sore, tender or even painful sometimes. This is normal, and does not mean anything is wrong. When you are developing breast tissue and experiencing growth you may have some "growing pains" but it is nothing to worry about and it will not last forever. Your skin is stretching as your breasts grow and this causes some of the itchness. How your hormones react to cause the growth may cause your tissue to be tender and sometimes painful, especially if you put pressure on the area.

    Uneven or Lopsided Breast Size or Growth

    Another concern some girls have is that one breast is bigger than the other. Uneven breast sizes is common, especially in the beginning stages of breast bud for girls puberty. It may take six months to a year for the other to catch up after one first starts to grow. In later stages of breast development, stages 2-4 (see page on breast growth ), you may still remain noticeably lopsided but usually by the ending stage, stage 5, they should mostly even out.

    Lumpy Breasts and Breast Cancer

    When you first get breast bud for girls puberty it feels like a lump under you nipple. Some girls may fear that they have breast cancer. It is normal for it to feel lumpy in the beginning stages and does not mean it is breast cancer. Breast cancer usually occurs when there are lumps in fully developed breasts, not in breasts that are just beginning to grow.
